Default crappy lappy

so i've got this piece of crap laptop from 2000. it's an IMB stinkpad
the little tic-tak mouse/joustic shit thing in the middle is broken
the battery is completely dead

the monitor is fine though

it's 256MB ram, 500MHRZ processor, pentium 4

ANYWAY
i'm thinking i should do something with this, like anything. i'm not exactly sure, but does anybody have any ideas of how i could salvage this for something? i could use a project right now

Update the BIOS, you can download it from the brand site.

I had a laptop like this, and it made a wonderful "hacktop"
