I have a Proxima Ovation SX color VGA panel for $25 plus shipping. The only downside is that it is missing the VGA cable (it takes a special cable that goes from male parallel printer type plug to a female VGA plug). It works fine as far as I know (powers up without any dead pixels or other artifacts). In fact, this panel looks like it's hardly been used!
A panel will not look good with video games (all washed out)... Not after using an LCD monitor. You seem to want all of the bells and wistles of a $1000 projector, but dont want to spend any money which is really not going to get you any where. Granted you can get an nview z210 for $36.05 as i did on ebay, no one in there right mind on this forum will sell you a good projection panel to only loose money. That being said, save your money and buy a 15 lcd monitor to strip.
I agree with Verbose - you get what you pay for. The $25 panel that I am offering can only display thousands of colors (maybe 4,000?). This would be fine for a first LCD panel for just video games from a game system like Xbox or PS2, but computer games would really lack depth and detail.
My first panel was an Nview Spectra panel that could only display 4,000 colors, and I was very impressed. I was so impressed with how large the image was and how cool it was to finally have my own projector, that I saved up a little more money and bought a Sharp QA-1650, which can display 16.7 million colors accurately - BIG DIFFERENCE in quality there.
Ultimately, if you're going for quality, there's nothing better than the 15" LCD panel that people have been talking about that has 400:1 contrast ratio for $230 or a 500:1 contrast ratio for a few bucks more.
