I've thought about this too but rather than having two machines...

Why not have a washer/dryer work in one machine? Put your cloths in and it starts to wash, once the water is rinsed out it begins to dry.

Edit: So apparently there is such a thing! http://goo.gl/CWgKD (redirects to sears.com listing of such machine)

The problem with that machine is that it is ridiculously small. At 2.3 cu ft, you probably couldn't find a comforter in there. Good find though! It gives me hope!
