DIY: Recycle An Old Laptop Into A Digital Picture Frame

by Missy on Thursday, May 14th, 2009

What is more eco friendly than reusing? Not much. So when i stumbled upon this cool DIY tutorial on recycling a used laptop into a digital picture frame i was stoked.

Have an old Apple iBook, Acer Travelmate, Apple Powerbook, Compaq Presario, Dell Insipiron or Latitude, Fujitsu Lifebook, HP Omnibook or Pavilion, IBM Thinkpad, Sony VAIO, Toshiba Satellite or Terca? If so – then you can turn that laptop into a digital photo frame.

From what i gather the laptops are completely taken apart, and usually run on a simple OS (operating system) like Linux.

Check out below what the future geek did with his old Dell Latitude 300. Pretty cool.

  • Haha, that's a great idea! Little did you know that when you were spending hundreds or thousands of dollars on a laptop that it would end up being a simple picture frame. Of course, if you want a little cash for your old laptop you can use a company like Gazelle also. They'll take your old electronics off your hands and pay you for them. Keeps e-waste out of the landfills, which sounds good to me.
