Turning CD ROM into a stand alone CD Player 1

[maximka]

Hello, everyone!
I happend to pull a CDROM drive out of my old computer. Would hate to junk it. Anyone ever tried to make it play audio CDs as a stand alone CD player?
Thank you.
Max.

You could... but why?

You'd need a power supply, an amplifier, controls...

After all is said and done, it would be cheaper to buy a Discman...

You could donate to Goodwill and at least get some tax writeoff..
