Perhaps it might, if it is similar to Windows Embedded Compact 2013.

Yes! Next year's toasters will run Windows 8.1!

Windows RT or full? Will they have touchscreens?

My toaster has been running it since February, so yes. Now, if I could just get it on my damn phone/phones.

Cortana is a master at making my toast with love.

It better be running full, I need to use legacy apps like Photoshop and AutoDesk Inventor - this is will be replacing my surface pro if it does! :smile:

Did you know? WMPoweruser just confirmed that Intel is indeed working on an Atom-based x86 chipset for toasters!
They also confirmed that Microsoft is working with several other companies to have hardware running Windows 8.1 for Kitchenware Standard!

In addition, they confirmed that Microsoft will produce a life-size Cortana pillow, whatever that means.

Yes, they will have touchscreens. Read my prior post for more info

Reminds me of the XDA thread.

Now... What about my fork?!

Now... What about my fork?!

Well MS talked about internet of things at Build 2014, i guess it will work out.
I wonder how they'll call it, Windows Fork? Or Smart Fork

With Windows Phone 8.1 you will finally start getting toast notifications on your Toaster

Dagnabbit, my toaster is running on 120 V AC and it says that if I want to update to 8.1, I have to modify it to run 12 V DC. Anyone have the instructions to do this. I can't wait for Cortana to tell me my toast is ready.

Clearly you were not paying attention at Build. You're toaster will be running as a Windows Internet-of-Things device.

 

[Jaskys]

Im quite surprised, but it runs pretty good

 

[LTTG]

I'm currently running it on my toaster, Cortana does a good job handling my toast

Yup:

Windows Toaster Sample Driver in C++ for Visual Studio 2013

At least kind of...

Reviewers have had it 2 months ago actually.

But shh! It's supposed to be a secret

And I thought it was webOS's killer app.
