Would anyone be interested in purchasing a used industrial computer with the following attributes. I originally got mine with the intent of making it into a car PC, but I found it was better suited to a projector. I took apart the LCD yesterday and the cables and controller require no modification:

Specs:

LCD: 10.4 inch 4:3 aspect 1024x768 TFT, I looked and I think the contrast ratio is 250:1 and the response time is 50ms....not bad!

Touchscreen .....Nice, but I can't get it to work in XP, only 98.

Computer: 400Mhz Celeron, 6gig 2.5 inch Lappy HD, 64MB PC66 SODIMM (I put a 128MB in and it has 32MB on board). Onboard Coax TV-Tuner, 2 x PCMCIA slots, 10/100 network card (PCMCIA), 1 USB 1.1 port, PS/2 port, VGA out, win98


It all comes in a nice metal case (it was a kiosk computer in its former days)

It has somewhat odd power requirements though....24V, 3Amp. I am currently using a Radio Shack PS rated at 30V,1Amp, as are several other people and it works fine. I has connectors that will need to be stripped before you can power it on, but it is not hard and it comes with all the pinouts.

I can get my hands on a lot of em, I have a lead time of about a week.

If you want one, go ahead post, email me (sbrewer@alum.rpi.edu), or PM me.

It will play DIVX and MPEG-2 great.

$220 shipped.


Questions?

It is a laptop motherboard that seems to have a Micro-PGAI socket, which can be upgraded to about 500mhz...I have seen celeron 466's on ebay, but nothing higher.
