Magnets and the F Clock. A portion of the article is listed below.
"Cool stuff from dead PCs: It's a fact that used electronic
devices can place a toxic burden on landfills. The Eden Project,
a U.K. nonprofit committed to a sustainable future, helps take the
sting out of obsolescent technology by turning yesterday's electronic
wonders into today's useful knickknacks. Consider a clipboard (6.5
pounds, or approximately $12.50), mouse mat (7 pounds, $13) or key
ring (1 pound, $2), all made from recycled circuit boards. Resource
Revival follows the same tack with its circuit board clock ($25)
and the Tech Museum of Innovation turns recycled circuit boards
into money clips ($11) and drink coasters ($22 for a set of six).
Tiffany Tomato Designs keys in on QWERTY with its keyboard magnets
($15 for a set of 12, $60 for full set of 88) and yet another fanciful
timepiece ($30). "
