Sold for how much?

Yeah, how much? I might actually get one of these, they're pretty cool.
I like the seller's other items, like the clocks made out of HDDs, that's real cool, because it spins anyways for the normal operation.
There's a ton of stuff you can do with scrap from a mac, like those key-rings a while ago, I wonder how much you could make, and then how much you could sell for, by making things with all the pieces of a mac? If it's greater than the cost of the mac itself, then that's a great idea for a business.

Couldn't click the link guys? Even though one of you viewed his other items...
Over at Etsy it says $11.
Cool idea.

whoops- my bad, didn't see the price.

I have a Power Mac G4 Cube Kleenex Box. Dump the core, cut a few fins out of the center heat vent, and a standard square kleenex box fits perfectly underneath. Use two paper clips and a rubber band to hold it in place. I even taped a CD into the CD slot for added effect. Got the Cube shell off eBay for cheap years ago.

Also has what appears to be a G4 side turned into a clock, for $59. Must have caught on that Apple geeks want this stuff!

Nice idea.
However, it's not going to do a very good job at telling time.

No, $11 is the additional cost for shipping it to the US. Check the asking prices for the other items, and you'll get an idea of what this clock could have sold for.

All in all, I'm more interested in why it isn't possible for iTunes to manage different libraries without being restarted, or why iDVD produces such poor quality videos. You know, the stuff which relates to how people use their Macs. I guess that makes me old fashioned, since such articles used to be the guts of old Mac print magazines.

My videos look great using iDVD.

And why would you think that?

Personally, I love the G4 Cubequarium. Those using the original 128K/512K/Plus cases come a close second, but the fully transparent outer shell of the Cube make an awesome small aquarium. This is a really neat addition to the Mac-themed art/household item genre, though.
