Title: where to get a lcd non wide screen for a jamma cabinet.
Post by: bigdaddynsir on July 18, 2007, 10:52:33 am

would like to stick a non lcd in a jamma cabinet with the 60 n 1 board.  most of the ones i have found so far have been wide screen. any suggestions or anything else that some one has used. a 19 inch looks to small for the cabinet. thanks

I second that emotion. Does anyone manufacture a 24.8/25" 4:3 LCD? Is there enough demand to create one?

My cab has a TV that obstructs the back door, which takes away all of the authenticity. I want an actual monitor, but not an 80-lb one that delivers lethal voltage.

I'd like to know as well.  I see that 21" (21.3) 3:4 monitors are pretty widely available, and fairly inexpensive.

i usually go to slickdeals.net           or           xpbargains.com          for lcd screens. but the only problem is that most of them now are wide screen only. the only way to rotate the picture is with a computer hard drive and also a driver to let the monitor know that it needs to rotate 90 degrees.
