<![CDATA[Mac Classic Devolves to Icon]]> There's little doubt that the Mac Classic is an iconic piece of computing history, but this SattaMac mod is truly, inarguably an icon. Even the most hardened PC users need to grit their teeth and admit, yes, the Mac Classic is an icon. Damn that modder! Damn him!!

From what we can tell, the SattaMac is made from nothing but a Mac Classic and some well-placed black and off-white paint. Granted, it's not exactly ready for operation. But were you really doing anything with that old machine before? Seriously, we're coming by and cleaning out your basement. And kicking you out per your mom's request*.

*We just realized that there probably is some poor, poor reader who really does fulfill the stereotype and live in his mom's basement. On behalf of Gizmodo, we'd like to apologize** making fun of you at every turn for the last several years.

**By "apologize" we mean we both know that the $170 in your "savings account" doesn't justify*** this money-saving venture.

***Seriously though, you're cool. We'll lay off on the jokes**** for a while.

<![CDATA[Classic Mac Becomes Sweet Jukebox]]> One industrious modder decided that the bet use for his newly acquired Mac Classic was to make it into this personal jukebox. After ripping out the CRT monitor, he was able to squeeze in a new LCD display, 2.0GHz Core 2 Duo Mac Mini, extra 750GB drive and power supply. The only external modifications included expanding the disc drive for CDs/DVDs and adding a tiny opening for an IR receiver. OS X was modified to automatically load FrontRow upon booting, completing retro functional sweetness. Bonus pic:
