What's the most creative way you, or someone you know, have used ur mac?

I've heard of some people who have run a personal weather station from a mac and there was even one guy here who was asking if it would be a good idea to run a nuclear power station from a mac mini.

How have you used your apple computer for something more interesting than the normal stuff (i.e. web browsing, photo/video editing, etc)?

I had an old quadra 650 with a 68040 that I overclocked to 42mhz and ran as a webserver/fileserver for 6 months or so.

I'm pretty sure that was a joke.


I don't really do anything you'd call creative. I use all of the iLife apps often, I think that only seems creative to a pc user though.
