Build a picture frame from an old laptop

The folks from Microsoft's Channel 9 site have a new section called "Citizen Engineer". Their first project is a step by step guide on how you can create a picture frame from an old laptop.  The device uses Web Services for Devices to listen for WS-Discovery messages.  Once detected it fires up a simple plug and play system automatically making the picture frame accessible on your home network. They are documenting all these projects and giving free software and source code too.
