High-tech washing machines which contact users by EMAIL when the cycle is complete have been installed at a string of British universities.Makers believe the digital launderettes will mean students no longer lug their dirty laundry to the washing block only to find all the machines in use.The Laundryview machines, were first installed at Leeds University where students accessed a website to see if machines were free before taking their washing.Students then load the machine as normal but later receive an email when their washing finished and ready to collect. The scheme have proved so successful it's now been installed at 28 universities.
