30 years of Apple computers in 2 minutes
This guy has made a short movie featuring all of his Apple computers – lots of them! It’s quite interesting to see how ugly they were at some point, especially the big, bulky beige ones.

Pivot Power, Adjustable Power Strip
Pivot Power is one of the nicest power strips I have seen so far. It’s clever design makes it possible to adjust the form and bend it into circular, semi-circular, and zig zag shapes. The Strip was designed by Quirky’s community members in just one week! More information and images inside.
Wine Jack the wine rack
I just stumbled across this cool wine rack that looks just like the input / output connectors from the back of an amp or a TV. The rack is designed by two young Italians, L.Bregoli and M.Fanelli, under the brand ‘Rocket’. Nice rack with a high gadget geek factor. It can be yours for around $200.

Mac Clocks and more from Geekware
Nicola Harper from Edmonton, Canada is transforming obsolete electronic waste into fun and geeky gifts. Here’s her latest lovely creations, sold at her site Geekware. If you want one of them you’d better be quick since most of the items are available only in very limited editions.
Here’s a lovely example; an old Little Professor (toy calculator from the early 1980′s) has been transformed into a clock
And here’s an old iMac keyboard that also serves as a clock.
Finally, a magnetic message centre made out of an old G3 keyboard.

Apple vs Microsoft design philosophy
This side-by-side comparison by a remote from Apple and a remote from Microsoft, supposed to do basically the same things made me smile. You can probably do some things much faster by using the Microsoft remote, but I really like Apple’s design philosophy…
