Had a customer do something like this?

But then they don't make nearly as pretty mobiles! I seem to remember not so long ago a really amazing scupture of a life size horse made entirely out of AOL cds so at least there is some use for them.

And then the AOL jumped out and sacked your computer while you slept.
I call it the AOLiad.

I always thought they were supposed to be used as makeshift frisbees.......

My son and I have already tried it, they don't fly well at all.

At least when they sent out floppies, they were somewhat useful -- reformat and use them. Other then the pack of floppies I bought with my first computer, I never had to buy any. They just kept coming in the mail.

My brother was building a mirrored ceiling out of AOL (and other) free cds and silver push pins.

If he had ever finished it, he was going to also set up a mirrored ball and laser light to complete the effect.

A friend of mine has curtains made entirely of AOL CDs.
