Oh sure, MRI technology has been saving lives for years, and that's great, but someone has found a truly exceptional use for its non-invasive detection methods: ensuring that the bottle of 1787 Chateau Lafite you're about to mortgage your house to purchase hasn't already gone to vinegar.
Able to detect oxidation products and other wine worries I don't quite understand (my most common wine-related quandry being how to remove red-wine stains from my white blouse) the Wine Scanner promises to let you know if your collectible wine is worth its hefty pricetag without you having to disturb the seal.
Mind you, it's got a $50,000 pricetag of its own, so if your wine purchases are normally by the box rather than the bottle, you'll probably want to give it a pass. - [Star C. Foster]
