Last month’s small 'news' item on '101 uses for an old Apple Power Mac G3,' a rather snazzy wall clock created from the side panel of a retired Apple Power Mac G3, created a flood, well steady flow, of emails to Macworld.

The handy work of Etsy user pixelthis, the clock seemed to hit a spot, possibly tinged with nostalgia, with some.

Several Macworld readers promised to dig out pictures of their own much loved Macs in retirement.

Jason Eckert's effort caught our eye, a picture frame housing a family photo,

"When my daughter's eMac died, I turned it into a nice photo frame for my rec room," says Jason.

"If you open the spring-loaded DVD drawer at the bottom, you will see the names of the people in the picture."

If you have a similarly inventive Mac conversion you wish to share feel free to drop Macworld a line. Don't forget to include a picture.

What a great design - we where big fans of the eMac and still see them occasionally still in use.
