Is it possible to run an otherwise normal desktop PC on a 2.5 inch notebook hard drive? I have a dying laptop that I just bought a new hard drive for and I would hate to let it go to waste, and I'm sick of dealing with laptops.
yeah, look on newegg for a 2.5" ide to desktop ide adapter.

While we're on the topic of salvaging laptop parts, would it be at all possible to take a Compaq Presario 2500 laptop LCD screen and converting it into a really ugly computer monitor?

Laptop hard drives are particularly slow and low in capacity. Consider seling or trading it off and buying a fast and large 3.5" hard disk with a longer life expectancy for pennies per GB.
If you do use the laptop hard drive, avoid using it for your OS or swap file if possible.
