A similar but much healthier and more computer-related variant might be a 
tool to track the prices of PC components when building your own PC? (i.e. 
motherboard, CPU, RAM etc) I've wanted a sophisticated version for a while 
- as in "hang on, you've missed out the CPU fan!" or whatever - but a 
simple calculator for the running total price would be a good exercise 
IMO?
