a couple of days ago, an engadget reader posed an important question:
Does a non-fugly cd-alarm clock exist? It is the Holy Grail of gadgets. How Sony can make a gorgeous T1 or T3 digital camera and still make clocks that look like ass confounds me.
now there is hope for fugly alarm clock haters. anders lundberg has solved your problem and built an alarm clock into a mac g5 case.
the howto is written in swedish, but it’s also well documented in the universal language of jpeg. it looks like he was able to create a custom led array that fits the hole pattern of the case, while using the guts from an every day alarm clock to drive it all. thanks for the link, gary!
update: a reader over at tuaw has translated the howto to english
