European refridgerator companies now include a computer in the fridge door with a TFT panel. And no, they don't run Windows. It's a thin client. A big, big thin client acting as an insulating door to a cold place. Main reason to make this a thin client, and not a PC: It has to work right away, and never be serviced.

When my fridge, my TV, my game console, my GSM phone are thin clients, I don't have to go to my PC every time I need access to software.
