Alternative Uses and Interesting Mods for a PS1?

carolinamagi asks: "I've got an original Playstation collecting dust in my garage that I only use when I've got a fix for Final Fantasy VII. I know the original Playstation is a dated system but I can't help but wonder if there are any 'after market' or non-game mods which others have tried (with success) to give their Playstation some new life. The catch is that I'm a total novice when it comes to mods (although I am handy around the house and around a computer) and I would still like the ability to play games with my modded Playstation. Any ideas?"

You'd probably be better off modding a DS. They're about the same horsepower, and the DS is portable. Although if you're really jonesing to mod a PS1, I'd think the best you'd be able to do would be to make it portable.
