I have been looking around for a mini LCD monitor that is reasonably small (under 10 inches), but the only ones I have seen are not VGA. I was thinking of getting a fit-PC and mounting the computer onto the monitor and have a tiny computer & monitor. If you see any, post a link.

You can get a Netbook for cheap, they have 7" to 10" LCD displays and probably cost as much for a refurbished unit as a fit-PC

Assuming you can find one, it will almost certainly cost far more than a netbook.

decent prices for those pc's, and they run off 12V.

Are they a reputable company, as I might just get one

They have been around for a while and they seem to be making decent sales, and they are coming out with a new version. I would get the slim as it has WiFi.

Krumlink, probably should have done your homework first. You're going to be hard pressed to find a VGA compatible LCD small enough, you could use a mini LCD TV but the resolution on those is crap and I didn't check to see if the fit-PC had a TV out. A netbook is going to cost you less than a fit-PC + and LCD you could likley adapt it to run off a 12 volt power supply easily and it outspecs the fit-PC in every catagory.

Go on e-bay and do a search on 7" VGA LCD. There's at least a dozen options.

The 7" eee PC is 100% solid state. Perfect for a bot and can be found for less than $300.

The LCDs on e-bay cost around $175 US. Sell your fit-PC for whatever you can get for it and buy a netbook. You still have a chance to get out of the money hole you're going to dig yourself into getting an inferior micro PC to a usable state.
