If you peel off the IC covers you can use them as photodetectors.

CPUs like the Mac or PC use require a fair amout of "glue" logic. Microcontrollers tend to have it built in, but you're unlikely to find a reprogrammable microcontroller inside your Mac. (although they're commonly used in mice, keyboards, monitors, modems...)
