Good Screen for hacking up (!/?)

If you're making a portable you probably need something to watch it on. (Unless you want to guess what's happening in the game, but I wouldn't advise that) Anyway, this forum is your "Hacking a pocket TV/screen" one-stop solution. Share your experiences and knowledge here.

It will work just fine if whatever you are inputing to it can output VGA. If you are inputting a console you can get a converter for composite to VGA. Or if the console you are inputting can output RGB, you can just hook it up to a DSUB connector directly. Do a google search for some pinouts.
