Check Craigslist for local deals. Also you may want to look into this thread for coupon codes for off-lease monitors and computers from Arrow Direct -- not sure if their shipping costs to Hawaii are reasonable, though. :dunno Scott |

Hot dang, thanks for that link, PL1. They'll ship me a monitor for less then ten bucks! :applaud: I'll take a b-grade refurb for that price fo sho. This project just got a lot cheaper. I was prepared for the screen to be the most expensive component! |

You would have a heck of a headache trying to hack a laptop monitor to work in a cab.. not worth the effort. I wouldn't go smaller than 19" personally, a 17 or 15 looks tiny in even a small cab. I have 6 4:3 19's sitting on my shelf I would sell for $40 each if you can find cheap shipping from 59101. They won't fit in a flat rate box though as far as I can tell. Sounds like that Arrow Direct place would be better for you anyway, especially if they can do the $9 flat rate box. |
