<><Does anyone know of a *cheap* source of a VGA-compatible display? What <><looking for, especially, is low power usage, followed by compactness an <><portability. Thanks! At 5$ it's interesting to have as a spare assuming the shipping isn't over 20$. <>I'm also interested in same and know someone that might like info. <>There is a truck load of applications for a cheap/compact/lowpower <>VGA display. I should elaborate. I'm looking for a mono (or color) display that is very low power and size is not that important other than I need to be able to see 80charx24line text on it. Graphics are not required. While some CRTs can be under 10watts power my desire is an order of magnitude lower if possible. An LCD would be ideal but alas none are available (low cost) that have more than the basic LCD drivers. The DELL laptop LCD I have is typical of the MONO 640x480 displays and the "video" input is not like a crt in timing or signals. For example the display is really two 640x240 running in parallel with seperate video for each. Hand built logic to do that costs enough in power and design time to make it unappealing or no better than a good mono crt unless I resort to Gals/FPGAs (design effort and cost prohibitive for a one up).
