The Datalux screens were designed mostly to work on a point of sale terminal... No idea what the resolutions are that it can cope with. But to be honest I doubt you'd be able to run something like mame on it. At least not without some severe limitations.

Good point.  Actually, I was thinking for more of a Jukebox application (I know, I know... I shoudl ahve posted there!  :)  I just didn't think.)

Oh well.  Thank you for the reply!
