Sleek and stylish, this coffee maker is designed to do more than just brew you a cup of joe. It’s “accessible over the web, just in case you’re so lazy that you need to tell it to start brewing from the other room rather than getting up and doing it yourself.” Video after the break.

But this insane contraption aims to do much more than that, seeing as it’s loaded up with a Windows XP computer and an 8-inch touchscreen.

An After Effects demonstration shows an editor selecting the outside of a cab and typing “taxi” — once the text is imprinted on the vehicle, it stays on the car as it moves up and down the street.

That’s right, a seller is offering an interesting Lincoln Mark VIII Prototype Concept Car with doors that disappear under the car” on eBay. Auction page. Video after the break.

Be wary however, as this concept vehicle seems to head back to eBay each six months or so. Probably because nobody can figure out how to get that pesky driver’s side door to work right.
