I've thought of doing it, but the power draw wouldn't be reasonable.

    You could try salvaging any good components to try and reuse for another project, maybe strip any RAM, drives, etc... to use in a storage bank.

    I have seen some unique project ATX motherboards that have SODIMM slots on them

  • I've already taken the RAM and SSD for my home server, but I don't think I can use much else. Not much of a hardware guy. I'll happily send it over to anyone if they paid for shipping (I'll even add some old RAM). Some screws are stripped, so the chassis doesn't close properly, but if those are replaced, it can be a perfectly usable laptop with some RAM and SSD. It'll be better than just dumping it.
