Go get a sno-cone or something! At the very least plug your computer in outside and play Civilization V on your back porch...

The desklap? The toptop?

"After waiting over a month and a half for a part I finally have the old laptop monitor connected and working on this critter. This thing has been running nonstop, except to hook up the new part for the last 3 months, and it has not had any problems Though I haven't actually found a good use for it other than running a few sideline programs, like Skype. The only cables attached to it are the power cables - it's wireless and uses the mouse and keyboard of the other computer on the desk."

Now I have the sudden urge to crack a beer and throw some meat on the grill. The server's hot enough to grill stuff on, right?

Computer battery broken? No problem! Just weld on a 12V boat battery. 70 pounds is a bit much for a "portable computer," but it's better than no computer at all!
