I never thought I would ever want a piece of home decor that mimicked a computer icon until I stumbled upon The Crash Pad. I am a Mac user and I often see this "thinking wheel" icon, so I guess it's only natural that I would want something physical to punch out as I wait not-so-patiently for my programs to load.
