11. Impacting our lives!!!!!-How To answer this question I viewed comments and opinions from different people from various websites. Opinion from answers.com: ‘ I believe it has affected our lives positively and negatively. The negatives are, that people are losing the traditional way of cooking dinner. The positives are, that the microwave can cook foods in an instant, and can save a lot of time.’ Opinion from J.Walker Smith: ‘ The microwave oven is the NO.1 rated technology to make people’s lives better.

Just think how much we use it every day...
