I looked into it when I was building mine and it wasn't even close. I didn't want to put a tiny 14" or 15" one in there so I didn't look into that and decided to go with a 19" LCD which fit quite nicely. You might have better luck with a smaller monitor...

Isn't 75% of 19" less smaller than 15" ?

yeah... my math skills aren't what they used to be. ;)
Something looked "off" when I scaled down the size of the monitor during the design phase. I'm not sure why since the ratio was the same all the way around. Because of this, I decided to scale down everything except for the size of the monitor. Now I have a min cab with a monitor that looks pretty big comparatively and since bigger = better, I win! :cheers:
