Ben writes - "I love analog gauges, toggle switches, and other retro technology, so I had to find something to do with my small collection of antique gauges. The result is my PIC-based analog gauge controller, which takes serial data and displays it on the gauge. Right now it's displaying CPU usage from my PC." [via] - Link.

There is an awsome set of analog gauges on display in the basement of the Smithsonian American History(?) building. Some of the first Edison Electric meters, etc.
