Build a Headless Laptop System [How To]
If you've got an old laptop with a busted monitor and nothing left on your warranty, don't trash it.

Even if you don't feel like removing your laptop's LCD, you can still mount your laptop under your desk for the same super-clean effect. Be sure to check out the post for more details and to see the uncluttered finished product.
