if you really dont care bout breakin' down apart, you should use the parts to start to learn to solder or if you want I guess you can try to build a totally new PC seeing as old laptops are as big as VCR's you can refit it with a bunch of stuff like a totally new MoBo and that fits the casing of course and kinda make it a side project or somethin idk i got a whole list of ideas i can throw, but these are things i would personally do. anyways good luck with watever you'll do with it!
