HP Gaming CTO and VoodooPC Founder Rahul Sood uses a Macbook Air to cut his birthday cake, puts up the pic on his blog.

Once upon a time, a Powerbook had a terrible kitchen accident. While the casing was a loss, everything else was saved. Now it’s running bare-ass, its vitals tacked onto a corkboard with pushpins, like a dissected frog still alive in a dish. Fascinating in a tech-gross way.

I’ve written a couple of times how in Japan seeing a wayward iPhone is rarer than it normally is elsewhere. That’s because hack-and-kracks don’t work there (their system has different requirements that the iPhone hardware does not have yet).
