Mac Classic Modded Into iPad Dock

Yesterday, we posted an iBook that had been hollowed out and modeed into a working iPad keyboard dock.

Today? The same concept, but accomplished far more elegantly with a vintage Mac Classic… complete with a custom MacOS desktop to keep things appropriately retro.

Superb. The only thing missing here is a wireless iPad keyboard to do your typing.

Great mod. If it could charge whilst its in the case it would be near to perfect.

So what about the home button would it not be needed?

This reminds me of Elementary school. I wanted an Apple back then :)
Cool idea. They should hook a keyboard up to it, if possible.

I will figure out a way to convert my dog (a boston terrier) into an iPad dock.
Why not.

It would have been something had the stand been constructed in more of a dock sense, integrated charging would have been cute.
