Super impressive homebrewed Mac. This guy designed and printed a Macintosh case and built a functional Mac including floppy that auto-ejects, System 6.0.8, adapters for both RJ-11 keyboard and ADB, a 10” (LCD) screen, boot up chime…
It’s a long video and it’s mesmerizing (to me). I especially enjoyed the first part in which the case is printed and sanded and painted. Incredible craftsmanship.
Today is the 40th anniversary of Macintosh. I’ve been a Mac user for almost 40 years. Lots of memories on this website.

I just need ideas ;)

It was a gigantic leap from anything else at the time and it completely changed computers forever.

This looks pretty cool: a 3D view of your computer's desktop. It seems like it would be more useful if I had one of the newer multitouch trackpads.
Every time there is a new major Mac OS X release, John Siracusa of the excellent technology website Ars Technica releases a long and detailed review. And the one for Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard one has arrived.
