nVidia GPU Egg Fryer

Remember SETI running out of compute power and outsourcing computations to citizens' screensavers?

Why not national labs do the same things with nVidia GPUs - you buy a GPU and use it when someone needs some computational work done - the heat generated fries your egg.

Think about it - the Carnot cycle - you generate heat - which then boils water and the steam does the mechanical work - and you have to use a coolant to get back to water so you can repeat. Key point in this new idea is that your coolant is the egg that's been sitting cool in the fridge.
