I just took apart my Dad's old broken laptop and kept the CPU, RAM, GPU and HDD

Any ideas as to what i could do with them ?

The CPU is broken and i doubt the GPU works, they are all old.

Thanks

How do you make a CPU into a keychain ?

And the GPU is very old and has no heatsink

CPU : keychain

RAM : ruler

GPU : no idea

HHD : if not working open it get the platters and the magnet  for the fridge and do this with the platters(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpQtXtARvDQ  should work the same way)

You just drill a hole in the cpu and put the chain through it. The gpu does not need to work to be used to put drinks on it.

What i meant by old is that it is just a card

It is a laptop GPU so I think it is impossible.But I did get where you took that from.

I might try them, but the RAM is tiny (laptop RAM)

Boil them into a nice fine mix of metal and sell it to some metal recycling center. :D You need a big pot with lots of heat hehehe

Well then this is what I just though :

Drill a hole(small) in the middle of the stick,then get a toothpick and glue it in the hole and you have made a paper holder 

by post it I mean this
