Luxo

I have an old iMac, the one fondly remembered as the “lamp style one” where you could move the screen around on the metal arm and pretend it was a Luxo lamp. I love the design, it’s just so unique, so different, so stylish, so much so that I’ve always refused to sell it. I bought the newer iMac model last year and kept this one nonetheless. It’s not the highest spec machine, I think it’s just a 1Ghz G4, but my question is this - what the hell do I do with it?

It was in the cupboard but I took it out because it felt like it was a little damp in there, and now it’s sitting on my bedroom floor. That’s hardly a permanent position for it however, so I need to find something for it to do. Maybe it could be an MP3 server (since I have a nice set of Apple only speakers), maybe it could be a digital photo frame, maybe it could plug into my phone line and run a premium rate answer phone based sex line.

Ideas anyone?
