    Well the ones I am talking about will be less than $100.00 US. Probably a lot less. I have nothing to do with selling them I just know where they are. Like most LCDs they do have a slight viewable angle issue but it is not too bad. More to come on this.

    Alex, is this the software you were thinking about? Maxivista. http://www.maxivista.com/.

    I bought 2x 8'' and 1x 12'' IBM LCD screens from a company that provides POS systems to a supermarket chain here. The 12'' got a touchscreen interface as well. An idea would be to go to a large supermarket and ask them who supplies and maintain their POS systems. Then contact them and ask, who knows they might have a few LCD screens to sell, hopefully at an acceptable price.
