This is one of those hilarious and wonderful things you find on the Internet:
(Edited to add: crap, it's apparently just a clever April Fools' joke from several years back. I suppose the temperature issue should have clued me in. Well, dammit. Maybe someone will make a USB port thing with a step-up transformer or something)
PC E-Z Bake Oven. It's a tiny version of the old E-Z Bake oven (you know, the lightbulb one) that fits into the "spare" 5 1/4" driver bay on a PC. And it plugs into the power source.
So you could bake little cupcakes, or muffins, or I suppose, tiny pizzas (just don't let the melted cheese get down in the PC) while you sit at your desk.
I will say I never had an E-Z Bake Oven as a child; when I asked for one, my mother said, "Why do you want to play with a fake oven? I'll teach you to use a real one, instead."
Still, you know? It would be kind of nice to keep a batch of refrigerator cookie dough on hand, and then at 3 pm (or whenever) bake yourself a single, fresh cookie.

You didn't miss much. I had an Easy Bake Oven. It was nothing like a real oven. It had a narrow slot in one side that you put a little cake pan into and pushed it out the other side when it was done. It would only make little cakes the size of a large cookie. I think later they made one that looked more like a real oven. Anyway, to me it was disappointing and not much fun.
