[QUOTE="Lars E., post: 23315, member: 12145"] I had a look at s479. The only motherboard I could find in Norway with DVI was from AOpen, i915GM based, and priced at USD300 (including our 25%(!) VAT). The lowest cost Pentium M was also priced at USD300 including VAT. That's expensive per square millimeter die. But, I should look if it is possible to find better prices elsewhere. James, Not a bad idea that either. If one could locate the right laptop with the right LVDS interface to the LCD, then one could probably hook up a much larger LCD module. Would have to handle backlight power and find someone willing to sell the LCD though. But, I am looking for a no-moving-parts solution. Thanks, Lars E. [/QUOTE]
