I got it that way from a client whose son got mad at it and punched it- It was spontaneously shutting down and he lost his temper. My gain! After removing the ten thousand screws that Toshiba used to hold that thing together, I took the motherboard out to the garage to spend some quality time with the air compressor. This time was used to remove the rug of shmegma that was jammed in the fins of the cpu cooler causing it to overheat. On reassembly, I purposely omitted the reinstall of the screen and viola! A headless laptop! Wee! See picture below!

I downloaded Wheezy Raspbian and installed it on the sd with Win32 Disk Imager . I also had one of these laying around: Logitech Wireless Touch Keyboard K400 It's nice because as you can see in the first picture, you only have 2 built in usb ports and that keyboard has a mousepad on it.

After several times of repairing her laptop using the easy bake method, we have begun to lose trust that that computer will continue to run. So the calender file had to be transferred over. Between versions 7 and 8 Microsoft changed the way the appointments were saved from the mswkscal.wcd file to an .ics I believe. Anyways, finding how to transfer the appointments to a new computer was difficult.
