Apple's old Macs are for the birds

"The old Macs are perfect for nesting boxes with ventilation slots along the front, rear, and under the hand space where you lift them," Harris says. "We tried the original iMacs, but they are too big and get too hot."

You can barely even tell its a Mac. With that wood face and roof. Cool idea for recycling though. But lose the wooden face and it would stand out as a Mac much more.

Yeah, they certainly did get too hot, I believe that's why mine failed.

Those birds at least want G3 iMacs...

I'm a bird. I am the 1% (of pets).
