Build your own picture frame PC

Heard about the new digital picture frames? Sure they are cool. But really, they only do so much. Plus you buy them ready made. Surely not anything for the MadMaker.

Why not build your own picture frame PC instead? On mini-itx.com, Josh Hubbard has posted a picture series about how he made a picture frame PC out of a Via Mini-itx motherboard and, well, a picture frame.

This is an old project and Via has since released their much expected, and much delayed, Nano-itx motherboard. With a footprint of only 12x12cm I am sure an even smallar pictureframe can be build. If you custommake a heatsink you probably can get it much flatter too.
