[QUOTE="Josef 'Jupp' Schugt, post: 4554933"] --------------enig97B57A0F9012E2DABA691387 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable * Hans Fugal, 30.03.2007 17:50: If it wins or not is not decided. Mine has a dial timer as well. As a shootout we would have to compare degrees per minute :-) Besides: I wonder why microwave ovens don't simply have an up and a dow button (like those present on most mobile phones) to increment/decrement the time setting(s). A dial timer is quite imprecise (especially for short time intervals) for mechanical reasons while a numerical pad is unnecessarily complicated meaning that it has many parts that may fail. They won't fail? Hmm, perhaps you compare it to your PC keyboard, but: In most households the s/p probability density peaks near the microwave, and not near the keyboard. s/p: softdrink/pizza Josef 'Jupp' Schugt, eagerly awaiting tomorrow's RFC :-) --=20 Blog available at [URL]http://www.mynetcologne.de/~nc-schugtjo/blog/[/URL] PGP key with id 6CC6574F available at [URL]http://wwwkeys.de.pgp.net/[/URL] --------------enig97B57A0F9012E2DABA691387 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGDbdgrhv7B2zGV08RAv5cAKCFCUVbYpUjd0Kv2/JFzsudf5EsvwCfSVM7 Lh9YfMLcKW2mYY1AKVsXbEk= =gFjD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig97B57A0F9012E2DABA691387-- [/QUOTE]
