Tfw always see old PCs in salvation army and want to buy them up for projects
Le old man daily drivers
Ay
I have 3 olds laptops, one taken appart and I have no idea what to do with them.
One of them is dead, one has been taken appart and the last one have a single-core CPU.
So yeah, that's pretty much it.
You've gotta cannibalise those parts my man
I had a Toshiba Portege r700 that got zombied into another laptop
Thinking about making some monitors with the screens though, for some shit.
17" and 15" screen, 1600 x 900 both.
And a 11" screen, 1366 x 768
17" might make a nice mini mame cabinet
O
woops
I'm sorry, but why even bother? I've picked up monitors with the same resolution for free
If I could do so, that would be great. I live in a shitty area, there's only one computer/electronic shop here and it's the shitter.
Tfw friend wants to give me 3 broken 720p monitors, just a load of junk tbh
Finding stuff like this still working isn't easy.
I'm the tech graveyard man
Yeah, okay, fair enough. It's a little easier for me, considering and I live in a big city.
He's a giganormie and doesn't even know what a resolution is, just thinks some monitors are "sharper" than others
Even the most normie people I know understand the concept of resolutions.
Almost everyone I know understands it.
Which reminds me, a good while I picked up a Dell Ultrasharp U2412M and U2410 for ~$40 each.
Both 1920x1200. It was a very welcome upgrade over 1680x1050 and 1600x900.
shit tilts, yo
For 40jewbucks, that's not bad.
Having the secondary monitor in vertical mode is really nice
Thinking about doing so.
It's worth trying, at least.
>see a nice looking monitor listed nearby
>look it up
>1600x900
>he wants £50 for it
No thank you pajeet
wat
ew
Ay no
>"bought it for my girlfriend who never used it"
Should have got her a 1080p monitor pleb
They usually do not really care about resolution, if it is at least more than 720p
My mom does, but Photoshop is kind of a big deal to her, so she's an exception
