Hmmmpf. I would have thought the little CRT units we're still cheaper
and more rugged. They usually package them in nice square housings so
you can wrap lots of gaffers tape around it to hold it down on pretty

But with the price of LCD's dropping, and them being lighter and all, I
suppose it was only a matter of time.
