He works on computers for a living and loves to do little projects so I thought it would be perfect for him :) The book is nice with a lot of different ideas in it, but there are too many that are useless. I do understand that when making things out of a dead computer you probably won't really be making a lot of useful things, but I just thought it would have more guy oriented cool projects in it. Not to sound sexist or anything, but making projects from a dead computer really seems more like something a guy would do (at least a much higher percentage), though I'm sure there are girls out there that do it too. So, being able to make sparkly trinkets for a cell phone just doesn't seem too appealing LOL ;) All in all, I wish there were more useful projects in the book and that it was a little less "go green" which in this circumstance seems to produce junk :( My husband has yet to make anything from the book ideas, it's been 1 month since his birthday...that is perhaps a review in itself. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ good idea book *by I***B on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 17, 2012* great idea book, with lots of creative useage for the old, tured out, non working. (or working and outdated) computer items layign aorund. Thanks to this book that I innitally purchased as bathroom reading, I now have a sanitary compost starter in my kitchen that has no oder, and it gave me even more ideas, I have made a wooden mouse from the guts of a broken plastic led one (I hate ball mice) and am almost finished converting a old computer power sully, and Tivo chasis, to a master power supply for all my USB accories, that not only looks good, but will be much more pwoer saving due to the lack of "wall warts" that will be used, (these items always draw power even if the item is not turned on! should save me a few bucks each month from my power bill, but I am goign to leave the chasis its origional color even though it is becommign a "green item! lolworth buyign a copy of this, great idea starter! 62 Projects to Make with a Dead Computer: (And Other Discarded Electronics) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good stuff! *by M***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 17, 2010* The first few pages contain information useful for a "new to electronics" person--things like resistor color code and what to do with capacitors.While there is a temptation to consider this a manual for electronic scavengers, I think it works on a couple of deeper levels.First, it opens the door to electronics as an art form; you can take old parts and create something that doesn't use electricity at all. You can make things that are useful or just interesting. All things don't have to have a practical function--or be beautiful. Conversation pieces are good for--conversation-- (something we may have to work harder at as face to face communication is replaced by electronic gizmos).Second, this book makes us think about all the good stuff that we throw away just because it gets erratic or outmoded.To sum it up, this is a good book for the artist, for the electronic beginner or the person concerned about trashing things rather than finding a new purpose. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/4518311-62-projects-to-make-with-a-dead-computer-and-other](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/4518311-62-projects-to-make-with-a-dead-computer-and-other) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
