I want one of these!

It's called the Coca-Cola freestyle machine.  Ordering drinks has never been easier or maybe overwhelming . I recently read an article that talked about a new drink machine that had many cool features. This machine:

~ is touch screen

~it can create up to 125 Coca-Cola products (for instance, an Orange Coke or a Vanilla Sprite Zero)

~gives you statistics of the most popular drink and how many are being sold

~ doesn't take up so much space like the regular drink machines

~uses small cartridges to flavor the drink

~ runs "self-diagnostics" to see how much of each ingredient is left in the cartridge

~has it's own Facebook

~has an app that uses GPS technology to tell people where the nearest Freestyle machine is.

"Cool!" was all I could say after hearing about this machine. If I encountered one of those machines I think security would have to pry me off of it. I wonder if people get overwhelmed when they are asked  "would you like a drink with that?" I know I would be. If I can get 125 different varieties of Coca-Cola drinks I think I would go through the whole list searching for the right one. Maybe I would get a few small-sized drinks with a different kind in each paper cup? I wonder if a huge line is waiting at a restaurant that has one of these drink machines? I bet that these machines are going to start replacing regular drink stations all around the world! Technology is soaring. Next thing you know there's going to be restaurants that run themselves! What drink would you order on the machine? Comment!
