"At first glance you might think this is some hacked-up clock made out of pieces of a hard drive, but this is actually a hacked-up clock made out of pieces of a hard drive that actually uses the mechanisms of the drive itself in a creative way. The platter itself turns to show the hours, and then the read head indicates the minutes. Clever stuff."

Windows sometimes gets antsy about removing devices that it has recognized. The little text box tells you that it's ok to remove it. |
