This PC living room is furnished with dollhouse fixtures including a sofa, cozy armchair and a little lamp (that actually lights up by plugging into one of the PC’s accessory power circuits). The tiny PC living room is perfect for a little family. This particular minuscule abode includes a gumball machine, a bottle of Coke and an edition of the New York Times.
This is a novel way to recycle your old PC towers, especially if you strip them for parts and are left with a half-empty shell. Make you own PC living room or any room for that matter -- heck, you could even make an entire PC dollhouse. Now, that’s something a MAC can’t do.
