MacQuarium

Joel Stein

Joel Stein has finally answered the question we all have been asking: what the hell do we're supposed do with those old plastic Apple mousepads we've accumulated over the years: use 'em as MacQuarium backdrops! Since they're plastic, when they get wet they won't get all funky like cloth mousepads would.

The Ed Tech MacQuarium is a departmental tank in the University of Rochester's Educational Technology group. The faux menu bar at the top of the screen cutout is a nice touch, but what Dr. Webster is curious about is why there appears to be a picture of Rudy Giuliani in a zoot suit behind the tank. Putting the MQ on a cafeteria tray is a great and novel way to contain spillage, although usually the aquarium plants belong on the inside of the tank...
