Here’s a pretty fun project that turns an old Macintosh PowerBook 100 into a monochrome digital photo frame. I really like the look of the photos on the screen mixed in with the regular photo frames. If you plan on doing this the project lists the software and power on solutions needed to get it working which may save you some hassle. Link.










I just finished a write up on how I did much the same thing, except I used a couple of old windows laptops. The laptops now run Damn Small Linux and sync with a central file server. One is at work and the other at home.

What about trying an already made Digital Photo Frame, Digital Picture Frame that is widely sold? It would save lot of time, I think.
