Chris and Chuck welcome you to the Linux toyshop
 
If the idea of remodeling an old laptop into a digital picture frame has your palms tingling, take this book home. That's one of thirteen cool projects these two experts will teach you to build using a PC, a few spare parts, and a little Linux. You can build single-use projects on an old PC, or simply add "Toys" projects to your high-end Red Hat Linux box. Just be sure someone knows where you are - in case there's an emergency before you're finished.
