Too Long; Didn't Read

Turn your old useless laptop screen into an external monitor. Here’s a how to guide to turning an old Dell Studio laptop into a smart mirror. You will need a controller board to interface the LCD screen with your computer. Most monitors available online cost upwards of 4000 INR, even ones on OLX and Quikr cost as much as 2500 INR. So I decided to wait until I could find a cheaper solution. I am so glad I did. I don’t like writing ‘how to’ articles, so I’m taking the liberty of assuming that you will be careful, are smart and that you’ll figure it out.
