Why might someone build a PC in a microwave?

When one man lost his job during the COVID-19 pandemic, he decided to save money by building a PC in his microwave. The Brazilian man’s creation was shared on Twitter recently by Jake Lucky.

While details are a bit scant on the ground, the whole thing reportedly cost $900. According to Digital Trends, PC Gamer guessed based on looking at the video Lucky shared that the motherboard is most likely an Asus A320M-K. The device is reportedly fully functional, although it probably can’t warm up your leftovers (not because it doesn’t get hot enough, but because there’s no room left inside the microwave).
