Hmm... lemme see... DVI=DIGITAL VIDEO INTERFACE/IMAGING

Come on, buy any laptop that has a DVI interface and you should be able to rewire it. I just sent a request to Hitachi about my LCD screen.

I have an old Hitachi LMG9400XUCC LCD screen. It has a 40 pin connector and a 3 pin connector. I assume the 3-pin is for some sort of power supply. The 40 pin is obviously data.

The 40 pin cable has 9 wires missing from it, which instantly cuts down the number of wires to 31. Imagine how many of those must be grounds and power, and you are left with few wires.

DVI only has 1 ground and 1 power. Should not be that hard to rewire a plug. Don't need any VGA to DVI connector, just buy a DVI extension cable and slice the wires or something. I am going to after I get a reply from the manufacturer.
