I saw that windmill setup on a webpage as I quickly went through news sites. I didn't pay it much attention. I don't even remember which page I saw it.

I can't wait till we have 3D desktops...

Thanks Theo

That's awesome! Has anyone tried blowing into their computer's microphone to get the windmill blades to spin?
