The Incredible Machine

Some of you might remember a neat, but mostly useless piece of software called The Incredible Machine. It let you build those types of machines you might see in a Wallace and Grommit film or the board game every kid wanted, Mouse Trap. where you could have a mouse spinning a wheel that released a ball down a tube, that flicked a switch to ignite a flame that lit a wick, etc. Physics and mechanics at their best. Well, those of you who remember this software (and anyone else, actually) might be interested in watching this incredible Honda Accord commercial. The commercial took 606 takes to get it right, all about which you can read here. (Thanks to Jeff for the link.)
