I am thinking about taking an Audrey (dead, alive, whatever) and seeing if I can mod it into the front bezel of a computer tower. The plan was to rewire the pinouts of the Audrey's display to turn it into a VGA monitor. However, I would like to try to maintain all the touchscreen functionality of the screen/device.
Has anyone tried this? Does anyone have any advice/experience/comments telling me that I am crazy for trying it?
Thanks in advance.

Ok, someone on my main board (arstechnica) found the pinouts for the Audrey display, and it looks like it won't work with a VGA connection (20 vs 15 wires). Is DVI the only option? Seems like a bit of a waste for a 8" screen @ 640x480.

Its probably something like a laptop LCD. A few years ago, I tried turning an old laptop into an LCD monitor, but the LCD controller boards are integrated into the motherboard of the laptop. I assume the Audrey has a similar setup, but I am not positive.
