My son bought a little electric egg cooker. It works well.

How have I been doing it lately?
Electric hot water kettle... drop in a couple or three eggs. Overfill with water enough to cover, plus a cup of tea's worth.
Turn on. Allow to boil. Start 8 minute timer. Pour water for a cup of tea. Leave the kettle alone for 8 minutes.
When the timer beeps, dump hot water out, flush with cold. Remove eggs.
Caveat: I like my hard boiled eggs slightly under-done. Not quite "soft boiled", but a certain orange tint and non-crumbly, non-liquid, softness. Add a minute or two if you like a more "done" egg.

Way too much work and clean up. =)
