Things To Do With A Broken Laptop: Touchpad Hacking (part 1)

I don't know if it's just me, but whenever I see a broken computer sitting around, I can't help but think of all of the cool parts and pieces that can be hacked from it! This will probably end up being a series about what to do with broken laptops, so to kick it off, we're going to salvage and hack the touchpad from a broken laptop. This means we're going to strip it out and rewire it to control other things! Let's see if this actually works. Also, GO BUY MY BOOK :-)
