I saw a project some time back where a fellow put a picture frame around
a color LCD display, and used the guts of a laptop mounted on the back
to drive it.  He had it set up with several high resolution JPGs that were
displayed like a slide show.  Hung it on the wall just like an ordinary
picture.  First time guests would at first be confused by the changing
pictures if they weren't aware of it.
