Do you have an unused, old laptop lying around, doing nothing? Find out the best way you can make use of it productively once again—as a second monitor! It’s easy, free, and there’s zero waste or teardown needed.

Don’t Waste Your Old Laptop

So, you’re sitting in front of that snazzy, latest-and-greatest desktop (or laptop) computer. Meanwhile, your old laptop, lurking in the wardrobe, feels neglected and sad that you’ve excluded it from the fun-house.

Today, I’ll teach you to revive your old laptop and finally make productive use out of it once again; we’re going to make your old laptop great again, that is to say.
