How to upgrade your Apple In-Ear headphones
The project:
This is probably one of the easiest and cheapest mods I’ve ever done. The idea is from Kristian Engelbrecht - a Chaosprojects.com member - who passed it on to me. When he told me about it, I knew right away I had to do it and pass it on.
Oh god oh god oh why:
I believe that if you can upgrade an everyday item for only a few bucks and a few minutes, you owe it to yourself to jump at it.
This one truly fits that description. It will make your Apple In-Ear headphones fit much better in your ears, exclude the surrounding noise way more, and you probably won’t ever experience the headphones falling out of your ears even when doing sports…
Getting ready for OSX Leopard
I guess I’m one of the lucky ones who have several 2,5″ HDD laying around without a box - thereby rendering them somewhat useless. I went down to the local computer pusher to buy a suitable case (with both Firewire & USB2 of course).
I found a case that met my demands - however it was rather hideous, and being a Mac-guy and all, I knew something had to change… So what to do? Paint it? Hmm nope… Painting plastic and aluminum usually leaves a result worse than what I started with…
So I thought “Hey… Let’s wrap it to go with the new OSX”.
Tadaaaa! A furry OSX Leopard ready portable harddrive.
