• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

I turned my old iMac into a robot costume and made a short video of it in iMovie. I think mac fans would appreciate seeing it. I think it's okay to post this type of thing, but if not I apologize. The video I made is here:

YouTube - iMacRobot2.mov

I hope you enjoy it. I've had a lot of good feedback on it. :)
Let me know what you think.

That was fairly creative. Probably one of the better uses for an older junk iMac.

hey thanks.

Thanks. The voice and music are coming from a speaker in my robot head. I play the sound from an iPod driven into a battery-powered audio amp, through the original input jack on the front of the iMac. I'm holding the iPod in my left hand.

I couldn't bring myself to throw my old iMac away. I thought that the design was too interesting. Now I've found a way to send it out in style. It was a lot of fun to wear it. The challenge now will be to part with the costume and recycle it!

Did you go to any Halloween parties with that costume?

I wore it to work. My fellow engineers really enjoyed it. I also wore it to a Halloween party that turned out to be NOT a costume party, but I kept it on anyway.
