I wish I had held on to my Mac Color classic for a number of reasons but after seeing this at the Japanese blog Site Hirac, I have one more.

Using the empty shell of the original Mac Classic this serious modder, has managed to turn it into the ultimate iPad stand. While it isn’t a perfect fit, it’s close and with a little bit of tweaking it could be designed to expose the full screen and the home button on the iPad. Although that would alter the wonderful design aesthetic of the original Mac.

You can see a Youtube video of the stand in action here.
