I've heard the best way is in ceramic cups in water in a pot, or sous vide.  Sounds like you need to do a roundup.
I'm back.

Can agree on the sous vide part (dunno about the others). I recently got a sous vide and doing eggs is awesome!

I have one of those and I poach an egg for my son every morning. They work great, but over time the latch wears or warps and it can pop open and blow egg shreds all over the inside of the microwave.

Until I can remember where I got it and replace it, I have been using a rubber band to keep it shut.

The soft silicone cups that you float in boiling water produce a prettier and more consistent egg, but take 10 minutes instead of 1.

I'm rather disappointed we don't really have the technology to do this more easily...

Or maybe people just liked scrambled more..
