4in LCD
 

thought this wuz cool http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showd...=4686&CATID=44 heres a reveiw of the kit that a certin company sells http://www.2fastcpu.com/microview/page1.html thought it would be cool instead of an vfd

The lightbulb just clicked on!

Take a mini camera and mount it inside your case. Hook the camera to the LCD. Voila! You've got video monitoring of your cooling system at all times! :eek:

hmmm interesting....

You can get those lcd on ebay as well,
very cool idea, well illustrated on the last page of this month's Maximum-pc magazine.
Definitely a solid alternative to the parallel port lcd

I ordered one, and it croaked on me. I have no idea how it croaked, but the display had nothing but vertical lines on it after a while. It was just a big pain in the arse anyway. The extended desktop was a "B", and I tried to get anime clips to play on it exclusively, but I could not get the darn video to stay in one screen and still do regular stuff. I'd launch a 3d game and it wouldnt work properly on the extended desktop either. The game would pop up on the little monitor instead of my big one.

I would rather go with a nice VFD which displays system stats. I initially thought this was a good idea until I tried it.

nice and cheap VFD
