Subject: RE: Wayyy off topic question about LCD monitors



really? the best ive found so far is a 3" screen that Citizen makes. The
cheapest you can get it for is $150. i was hoping for a little bigger
screen and spending about that much. hence, convert an old laptop screen.
but i guess you have to build a power supply, a driver, and watever else.
