Aaron gave me two old laptop LCD screens while I was home, one was an extra that someone shipped him and wouldn’t take back (he tried to give it back, but they guy didn’t want to waste the time or shipping), the other is the one I was replacing with the new one he bought.
Now these aren’t amazing, they both have some flaws, but those are mostly minor IMO.
So, I’m looking for projects to do. I was thinking of making something like a home-brew Panel PC kinda like the ones I sell at work (here is a link to our panel pc page), and then use that as a control center for some media / communication things. Like making it into an astericks server for handling voice mail and call forwarding, and maybe a nice user interface to go with it, touch-scren based perhaps?
The other I was thinking of doing some DIY home projector kind of thing. There is a neat guide on toms hardware on how to set something like that up.
Anyway, I would like to hear any ideas people have for what fun things I could try to do with two free LCD screens.
