Is there any creative way to keep the box?
Or did you throw yours away?

I use mine to haul my iMac around when needed.

Put it in the back of the closet until it's time to sell in 18-24 months.

Keep it in case you need to bring it in or ship it for repairs.

Attic. I bought mine in the middle of the flicker screen trouble and was worried I would have to ship it back. The box is still in the attic.

Put rocks in it and try to scam someone into buying it.

Used it as load-bearing support for my cardboard fort.

Eat it. It could feed a family of four for three days.

That's the reason why I always keep my macs' boxes.

We have ours in the garage. I figured if we needed to take it in for service or eventually sale that it would come i handy.

Basically the replies above. I had to bring my iMac into my department's IT office to install some software, and I'm glad I had it because I had to carry it a few blocks and I'd be afraid of what could have happened along the way like some horrible drop. It'll be extremely useful when a new iMac comes out and you want to sell.

Mine is used as a stand for my monitor which I use for my PS3, which is in the cupboard in the office :p

A bit rude, but it was a little funny though :D
