This was me, had to change locale. Left with just a laptop & clothes. Enjoy what you got, while you got it. Nothing lasts forever, let go when/if the time comes.
I made it myself from the display of a Sony VAIO and a tablet stand. After disassembly I bought the display driver for it from eBay. It takes 12V power so all I needed was to add another tail to the 12V server PSU that powers all the auxiliary devices in the area.
I use it mainly for system status monitoring, pretty easy to make and very useful.
Very cool to find another one who had the same idea
What panel is it?
From which vendor did you get the controller board? niytouch?
I have a 7" as a system monitoring display myself.
I have about a dozen laptop displays that I got off a guy who was spring cleaning the tech stash in his garage. I had no clue what I was going to do with them, but this looks like an interesting possibility.
You did the same thing that’s awesome. I’m not sure of both to be honest, all I know is that it was a decent IPS display that I didn’t want to go to waste.
I post a picture from last year and of the latest(oldest) computer I have, -Osborn(II) Executive 1982 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osborne_Executive At least once every year I start it up. Attach 2 pictures. Be my guest and LOL.
