This is a question DIY Techno-hacks

Old hard drive platters make wonderfully good drinks coasters - they look dead smart and expensive and you've stopped people reading your old data into the bargain.

Have you taped all your remotes together, peep-show-style? Have you wired your doorbell to the toilet? What enterprising DIY have you done with technology?

Extra points for using sellotape rather than solder.

Sorry, no
I work in realestate in Australia.

The computer I work on is not on the internet (even though I worked out we'd save over $300 per month in ink, paper and specially printed cheques if it was)in fact only 1 computer in the whole office is.

We use the typewriter at least once a week.

My boss is in his late 60's and refuses to be dragged into the 21st Century (or even the 20th FFS).

By any chance
Is the company you work for called Rancam?
Surely there can't be more than one real estate company still producing invoices on electric typewriters.

Strangely no.
Nice to know there's someone out there technically I inferior to us!
One day I'll get my hands on the company and drag it kicking and screaming into the modern age.
We may even get inter-office email!!
