Who is working over in the packaging department at AOL?? Don't they understand the concept of the envelope?
I just got their 9.0 Optimized sent to me in a neat little box made of mitred MDF:
It's a pretty cool box, actually... if I only had a use for it. If AOL is going to send out their disks in wierd packages, they need to start making them more useful. Like a package that doubles as a coffee mug or something.
Yeah and you can acronym it TCDJC so nobody will know what the hell you're talking about.
I had no idea what they were talking about, either. But, after a quick Google, it's either manic depression fellowship, Maine Development Foundation, or medium density fiberboard.
Okay, this nifty little box is beginning to grow on me.
I've managed to peel off the AOL labelling so, now when it's closed, it looks like a square piece of 3/8" MDF. But, when you open it, it's got this nice sort of white melamine surface inside.
I was thinking maybe I could put some type of veneer on the outside to doll it up.
But, I still can't think of a useful purpose for this box!
I mean, it's not even very good for holding a cd. There's no spindle or anything to hold it in place.
There's just something about the smell of freshly sawn MDF.
