Saeco Xelsis Digital ID coffee machine relies on fingerprints to make a cuppa

Love your morning coffee the way you only know how to brew? Well, hate to break it to you buddy, but if you’re working in an office, chances are you won’t be in a position to brew the perfect cup of coffee. On the bright side, with a machine like the Xelsis Digital ID from Saeco, it can remember closely your preferences in each cup of java, using your scanned fingerprints to kickstart the coffee making process. Features include timer programming, automatic descaling and machine self-cleaning. Needless to say, something like this costs at least $2,500 a pop which is mighty expensive for most folks. Will corporations also cut back on their spending when it comes to appliances such as this?
