This is why computers used to have that cup holder that would slide out and give you a place to put it.
When you weren't using it you could even put a music CD in it and it would play music right through your computer speakers!
- laurent92 6y agoAnd if you used it, it would pour coffee right through your computer speakers! Magik!
- SippinLean 6y agoI actually had a cup holder for a drive bay that was intended as one, it even had a cigarette lighter! https://sep.yimg.com/ay/yhst-39083765508394/thermaltake-x-ray-1.jpg https://sep.yimg.com/ay/yhst-39083765508394/thermaltake-x-ra...

- aksss 6y agoOne of the very few things that make me lament not being a smoker.
- tambourine_man 6y agoEvery smoking accessory is awesome, the smoking in itself, not so much.
- nayuki 6y agoYou can use the lighter socket to plug in a car-USB charger, inverter, or other wacky gadgets
- aabhay 6y agoI was so hoping that the cup holder would be heated, but alas not. Such a missed opportunity!
- sharkweek 6y agoOr a little later, if you were anything like me, run a little homegrown music piracy operation for your entire high school!
- kbenson 6y agoAccording to my brother, Dreamcast game piracy was where the money was...
- kodt 6y agoDreamcast was easy to pirate. But I think there were only a couple kids in my entire High School that even had one. Later when they were cheap to buy used I think the piracy scene really picked up.
- pavel_lishin 6y agoSomeone very much like you caused one of my first run-ins with the law! One day when I was in high school, the police asked me to come down to the police station for a chat. The police chief asked me if I was the one who "copyrighted them there CDs". (For the record, I wasn't. I wasn't going to be doing much for-profit piracy on a dial-up connection.)
- annoyingnoob 6y agoI can recall being called into the CEO's office one day, close the door he says. I'm thinking uh-oh nothing good can come after that statement. He proceeds to tell me that he put a CD into the floppy drive and could I please remove it. I was sworn to confidentiality, never happened.
- temp8964 6y agoI want to check the validity of your story, but unfortunately I can't find a CD, or a floppy drive.
- scandox 6y agoI guess it could fit in 5.25"?
- IanCal 6y agoOr one of those little CDs, business card size for example.

- annoyingnoob 6y agoYeah, exactly. Showing my age here.
