iBento

Surely it makes more sense to disguise your computer as a bento box than to disguise your bento box as a computer? I am of course missing the point; it's not some kind of anti-theft device, just a piece of custom laquerware.

"Download" is dedicated to the individuals whose dining companions are often their computers. The monitor, a shallow plate that reminds us there is more to life than work. The keyboard, a shallow box for holding food items, a CD to serve as a small plate or coaster, a mouse which is a two sided spice dispenser and a mouse pad napkin.

I can't get one of these, though, as then I'd have three computers on my desk, not just two. Plus the PowerBook would get jealous, even though she's much sleeker.

Not she, "it". I meant "it".

What is it with the anthropomorphisation of macs...check out the Daily Source Code from 10th October for the heartbreaking tale of the slow demise of one man's powerbook... and do hang on for the remix of "Rhinestone Cowboy". You know it's wrong but it sounds so good...
