Does anyone know of a *cheap* source of a VGA-compatible display? What I'm
looking for, especially, is low power usage, followed by compactness and
portability. Thanks!

A while back, I was able to find an IBM ps2/e (e = environment-friendly)
with flat-panel cheap, but I don't know of a source for more of them.
Which reminds me of a hardware question: I can get lots of nice LCD
displays very cheap. How hard is it to convert one to a VGA display (or
even to convert an old laptop with built-in VGA controller to something
that will accept VGA input)?

Well, I have two things, Looking for cheap compatiable color DSTN or
TFT for my Stepnote 486DX4 notebook and I have a 9" VGA mono monitor
branded IBM and in IBM style if you want it. *I paid bloody 150
dollars* back in 1990 as a bench monitor, still good after I spliced
inside because that original black VGA cable went bad with that's
easier to replace and much inexpensive one. Oh, it has no burn in
spots.
Let me know what you need for info.
