Tick-Tock, Mod My Apple Clock

The countdown to the SuperBowl is on. And if you had this one-of-a-kind recycled Apple clock, the countdown would likely be a whole lot more fun.
Or something like that.
The wall clock in question - of which there is literally only one - is made from an Mac G4 ibook case and measures a sizable 14"w x 18"h. In addition, there's an Apple mouse that serves as a fully functional pendulum. How does it run? On a simple little pair of AAs. That's all it takes to maintain the tick-tock of this Apple lover's quartz clock.
Or something like that.It makes a great conversation piece.
If you haven't already noticed, there is a rapidly burgeoning market for memorabilia derived from modified Apple products of yesteryear. And despite what you may think, this sort of stuff sells out pretty quickly. An example? This clock. The first and only sold for $75 yesterday at Etsy.com.
Of course, if you're so included, there is still a wall clock made from an old iMac motherboard that similarly serves up an Apple mouse for a pendulum.

That will cost you a cool $119.00.
Images via Etsy.com.a great gift for that Mac geek you know who is so hard to shop for.

Shouldn't this be in 'Chit-Chat'?
It's hardly news let alone iPhone news.He who asks a question looks foolish for 5 minutes. He who doesn't ask a question remains foolish forever.
