Here's the deal, brother - I already did that. It's cost prohibitive and puts you back into the $300+ per piece market. So, yeah - I do have business sense, thanks.

:roll:

Anyway, this was just a thread to see if anyone wanted to offload their LCDs for science and make a little money in the process. Judging by the response, I'm not going to have it that easy.

There is a big difference between a passive and active TFT display. The MPC displays are passive and those tests will not accomplish anything besides wasting your time. ;)

$10 for something you would throw away anyway.

UPDATE:
Doesn't matter. I got a shitload of these displays now so I am getting the last laugh.

So, should I sell them for $100 or $500 now that they're "obsolete"?

Maybe I should make fun of you now...

Wow, that's crazy. You have no idea what you're talking about.

These guys kinda know me and I can source like a champ.

I could get these screens for probably $100 or less brand new, from China (MPC4000 Screens for $72).

Problem is you gotta buy bulk of at least 100 of them to get the price, you just gotta have the capital.

You have no idea what you are talking about, and I may have just over educated you by using words like Source (ing), and Bulk..... and Capital.

LOL :lol:
