Dear Log,

Me and a friend gossiping:

Fishpockets: Did you see the new iMac? I call it iLamp, but I actually like it because it goes with my Buck Rodgers Decoder Ring.

Torgo X: something about the iLamp thing ... I dunno. I think of square circuit boards hacked and sliced in bad ways so they'll fit in that case.
I feel like saying "just make a damned box for once! You can decorate the outside with STICKERS if you like!"

Fishpockets: It's supposedly a "custom" circular board. It's probably a P4 board cut up with an exact-o knife.

Torgo X: Hell, make it look like a Cornell box. ARTY, YES? ARTY!

Fishpockets: Yeah! And you've got to shake it and get the ball through the right hole with the photo of Lauren Bacall to turn it on!
