I have one I bought from a guy used for 50.00. It was one of those little portable TVs with a 5" screen, I just took it apart and kept the controller and on/off switch on it. The picture is crystal clear and with adapters I can run it out of my s-video plug.

I would try some pawn shops or something like that for one of these type items. You might get lucky and find one nice and cheap. My only problem with it is I can't find anything to run in it.

The real question is what kind of LCD do you want? Graphical or text? If you are just looking for a text display for system stats and stuff like that then I recommend matrix orbitals. They have alot of cool features such as buttons to pull up different information whith plus they can control lights and stuff as well. Plus they come with the lcdc software which is pretty nice.

i bought a gamecube LCD screen myself, it was $90, but it has A/V/Svideo imputs, and its the perfect size to fit in 3, 5 1/4" bays

So do you have pics of what you made it into yet? I'd like to see what my old screen went into.
