Recommended LCD with 27" of space to work with?

[stpcore]

I have a gutted cabinet that I was able to get fully working but it doesn't have a monitor.  It had a 27" 4:3 monitor in there before.  I really don't want to put another full size arcade monitor in there and I was hoping to put a 16:9 LCD in the cabinet.  I have a 27" wide space to work with.  I don't care about delay since this is a PGA Tour Golf cabinet and response time is not an issue.  I would like it to have a VGA input however as I do not want to use S-Video to output from the computer that powers the game.

So I'm thinking that someone must have been in a similar situation before and I thought that I would ask some advice.  I found a Vizio Razor on Amazon that is a 29" widescreen with a total depth of 26.75".  That seems like the biggest screen size that will fit my space restriction but I don't want to spend $330.  The Amazon link is here:

So if anyone might have a recommendation of a large widescreen format LCD that has a total width of 27" and won't break the bank I would appreciate it!

I just got this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236103 for my build.  It was only $249 for black friday but it might go on sale again.  I have only connected it to my PC but the picture is awesome.  I am just finishing getting my MAME PC built so I will try it shortly with some games.

Thanks for the link.  I'm still leaning toward the 29" monitor I posted above.  An extra 2" makes a big difference (that's what she said) in the space within the cab!

Thanks Ed.  I sent him an email just now requesting additional information.  I think I'm kind of set on placing a 29" monitor in there but I will wait to see what he suggests.  I sent a PM to you earlier by the way.
