reduce the length of a vga/dvi cable?

I mean the physical connection.

I have been doing more searching. Seems like LVDS is the internal connection, a few Atom boards have it and one 8400GS I can find.

My plan was to fit an ordinary LCD screen into the case (Keeping my eyes pealed for a cheap one as we speak).

This should then just use a plain old VGA or DVI connection :-)

I think I still have one of these sitting in my attic, good to see one being put to good use again.
