I've always rather liked the idea of purely mechanical solutions to complex problems that we tend to solve today with electronics.
I like even more the idea of such rube-goldberg devices at, say, a Ren Faire being used to mechanize a process beyond the manner of the time, but well within their technological means.
The idea that if you had only those physical resources, but all of our modern ideas... what would you do?
