How about this monitor - Compaq TFT 5015

Hi,

I am getting this monitor for €300. Will it be good enough for the projection job?

Thanks

Good price...

That's a good price for that monitor, is that a private sale or retail price?
I't would be good for projection, just be careful taking that baby apart..😀 How where you thinking of doing it? By OHP or by building your own.

Best of luck.

Let's us know how you get on with your projector.

Cheers,

BrainResinFreak,
I am getting it from a friend in a private sale. Since I am new to this area, I will make an OHP based projector first and then proceed to make a solid-state one later. I will look forward for advice from the gurus and pundits of this forum.

Thanks for your post and now I will start looking for an OHP also which must not be a tough job.

Cheers!!!

OHP

You'll need to get an OHP with a big enough staging area for your 15" lcd, see.... http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=9622
I hope this helps.

PS. What part of Dublin do you live in?
