Yes, we are on a continuing quest to “save the earth”. Recycled waffle irons turn to a CPU casing and you’re on healthy living. You can even bake a waffle while blogging. Lastly, show your wife or mum that your junk yard could be useful some day… some day….

The “Waffle Iron PC”
By Philip Nerges, New Jersey, USA

Here is my Waffle Iron PC. I used an EPIA M10000 Mini-ITX board. It has 512MB RAM and a 160GB hard drive. I used an external USB CDROM to install the OS. It runs Linux - Fedora Core 2. It’s also got a TV Out card, so I can use this for a MythTV box if I choose later.
