Lego Mac
eBay has a PowerBook 5300 that’s been moved to a neat little Lego case that he built himself. There’s other articles about it here, one hosted by the PB in question here, and another over at theBBC.
I’ve got one of these units at home, and a ton of Lego – perhaps I’ll do the same thing!

Oh, a silly case to go with the silly interface, all those icons and little bubbles that cause cavities just from looking at ‘em … and don’t legos come apart? Or do you have to glue them together?

If you were building Babar for, say, the YNHH Children’s Hospital, you’d glue them together. But for this, you could leave it the way they are – they’re pretty sturdy and hold together well.
I like the idea of having extra pieces there, so when you have to reboot, or you’re bored, or stuck for an idea, you could build something on top of the computer, or expand on something you have there – it’d be kinda neat.
