    Go to the bank at change it for 1000 1 pennies and then you can build a new custom PC case entirely out of 1p coins. itd look amazing apart from the weight = no LAN partys , and it would be really hot

    plus you would probably have about £50 left to spend on something else

    Ah, reminds me of my old fundraising days in the charity sector, very good <applause>

    Buy an old boom box. Buy a tablet PC. Gut the former, put the latter in it and connect to the speakers of the boom box. Stick some tunes on the tablet hardrive. Put a very light OS on it, with a skinned media player (probably Winamp) that looks like the tape deck on the boom box. Voila, your very own retro-modern boom box music player.

    &#163;99.99 to you guv. Or for &#163;100, I'll do you a buy one, get one deal.

    You could help pay Leepox pay his electricity bill?

    http://forums.hexus.net/showthread.php?t=98276



    You swap it for 2 £50 notes, wrap them around some fivers ( or monopoly money ) and look like a drug dealer?

    How about sponsoring Hexus in return for your own forum?

    Go to ur local joke shop, try and find a severed head or a hand, place it in the fridge and leave it there for the missus or mum, depends who u live with?
