home from the Dean Meetup. It was
sitting by a trash can so I picked it up and took it home. It was cold walk
home with it, about a mile or so was left in my walk and it was about 15 degrees
outside. Luckily it was pretty light and I could carry it with one hand.

When I got it home, I first decided to see if it would power up. Taking a power
cable and plugging it in I was greeted with the familiar Macintosh chime but
not screen came up. After about 30 seconds it started to smell a lot like a
model train set, I knew this couldn’t be good so I turned it off.

I began to think about what I could do, and only one thing came to mind,
make a MacQuarium.
So that’s what I’ve begun to do. Unfortunately, I don’t have a nifty digital
camera, so there won’t be a lot of pictures, but I’ll probably do a few as
I progress. More updates to come.
