    I finally found a good use for that old Macintosh Classinc computer that has been staring me in the face for years. I am using it to hold a fan up infront of one of my windows. My office is on the Third flor of my house (in the attic) and it gets hot. My AC died a few weeks short of the colder season so I am having to resort to fans.

        No, I just can't seem to bring myself to get rid of it. I have a regular museum around here and my 2 Macs round it out. [EDIT] Besides, the thing is just so damn cute [/EDIT]

          I've seen some old Apple ][e's being used as fish tanks. I suppose a Classic would work, too.
