It's machines like that that make perfect candidates for digital photo frame projects. You could get your hands on another LCD and mount the whole thing in a nice enclosure on the wall and have it display a slideshow. Or even just a desktop version. With Wi-Fi, you could also have it display a 10 day weather forecast, or some other kind of feed. Maybe some streaming audio. Or make it some kind of wall-mounted iTunes media center controller. If you can't get your hands on another LCD maybe pull the guts out of a cheap 15" LCD monitor and make a pseudo -iMac kind of thing.

I made a desktop photo frame out of old laptop parts and enclosed the whole thing in LEGO. I sourced a whole stack of broken, smashed laptops from the IT dept at work and managed to find enough pieces between them all to make a working unit.



With such a powerful machine that's otherwise useless as a laptop, you could probably make something pretty cool out of it. Having Wi-Fi too, you wouldn't even need a keyboard or mouse. You could just remote desktop to it and administer it that way.
