Hey if you can attach a bga with a toaster more power to you (or the
oven got the bread the right collor of brown). using companies that
are good at depositing 900 pin bgas has been successfull.

I did successfully attach the BGA using a $20 toaster oven. I used a
MAX6675 thermocouple to SPI converter connected to the parallel port
of my laptop along with a relay to switch the power to the oven. I
set the oven on broil and got mostly infrared heating. I can post
the temperature profiles if anyone is interested.
I'd like to see the profile. Now when you outfit your toaster oven
with ethernet, then I'll be impressed ;) Still, thats pretty cool. I
take it that you're actually regulating temperature not just
monitoring it?
