This forum is for discussion of Matrix Orbital displays only... MO don't sell bare graphic LCD's so you need to look elsewhere I'm afraid.

Mind the doors.

Make sure you've put your transistors in the right way round (mine are labelled backwards in the diagram as they're pictured fro...

Yeah CD audio cables work but ideally you want two pin 0.1" pitch pin sockets... radio shack should stock them.

I'm pretty sure turning the backlight brightness down a little will make the inverse yellow look green...

If it doesn't I'd say just pop a green filter in front, it shouldn't decrease the brightness of the screen much.

You can buy LCD units that will fit in a single floppy bay, but not from MO :(

You thought about putting the LCD elsewhere? In the top or side of the case maybe?
