If I had a mailbox like this, I would have a huge dog and call him Spamkiller. [Thanks Eduardo Lozano]

Envelope Mailbox: You've Got Mail

Charlie White — Fri, 11 Aug 2006 14:41:40 EDT

There's something charming about attaching computer icons to physical objects, and when you etch that graphic onto a bit of frosted glass over stainless steel, you end up with an Envelope Mailbox that qualifies as an irresistible piece of geek chic.

Now if you could just find a mail carrier that will bring your mail all the way up to your house rather than dropping it into a mailbox that's a half-mile away, this 15.5" mailbox would make a whole lot of sense. If you're so lucky to be able to use such a thing, it's $68. – Charlie White

Dead Letter Box: Mac G4 Put to Work

Charlie White — Wed, 31 May 2006 09:58:04 EDT

We have an old Mac G4 taking up space in the basement, and we were wondering whether to throw it out or to perhaps donate it to one of the schools nearby. Turns out, no school will take such a relic, but then we came across another idea shown to us in this photo found on Flickr, a G4 tower converted to a mailbox in Auckland, New Zealand.

The perfect mailbox for fanboys the world over, it serves as proof that a Mac G4 can finally be useful for something. We're just wondering if this old blue and white Mac will hold your letters for an extra week or two, showing you a spinning beach ball before you can retrieve them from within. – Charlie White
