Hardware whizzing: sometimes it's less about MacGyver skills and more about your bank account.

Not only is it steampunk, it's early '90s. Currently on display at The Mac Store in Eugene, Oregon, this mod is a combination 1991 Mac and 114-year-old Remington typewriter. Its features are a mix of 90s and 19th-century, too: the mouse is made from a Morse telegraph key, while the modem is 56k and the operating system is Mac OS 7.5, complete with a word processor, calculator, spreadsheet program, flight simulator, and Tetris.

"It was all like, 'Installing Updates: 1 of 396 installed, please do not power off your computer,' and then I was like 'HELL NO!'"

I'm not the least bit ashamed!
