shmagoogin, if you are in the USA check circuitcity.com and search for Verge. They have a gamecube and Xbox game screen. it IS a PSOne screen. I have one and piece by pice, its exactly the same as a regular PSOne screen, but "hacked" a little bit. Instead of using the Slot1 and 2 connectors, thet solder'd riht to the motherboard.

Ive got one and it KICKS ASS! And for 55 bux it wasnt a bad price!

EDIT: And free shipping!
