Some people spend a tremendous amount of time in computer generated universes, but these poor souls occasionally have to drop back into the real one to feed and water their physical bodies.

If there was a protocol for linking computer game environments with takeaways, you could order food without having to go through the trauma of leaving your game environment. Computer controlled door locks could even let certified delivery personnel deposit your refreshments at your desk, for a really seamless experience.
