It's a company called lilliput. Light small, and been reliable.<br>
<br>
About $100-$150.<br>
<br>
Best of all you can probably just buy one yourself and carry it in a bag sidesteping office red tape.<br>

Hey<br>
<br>
Never seen that in production.<br>
<br>
I have a tiny 8" LCD I use for emergency console work. Easily fits in a napsack. Tiny keyboards and mice are easy to find. If you are interested I can look it up when I'm home.<br>

Hi Lilug,<br>
<br>
I'm on the hunt for a rack mount PC that is a pull out drawer with a<br>
flip-up LCD screen.<br>
Specs are modest, it's nearly a dumb terminal.<br>
If it all fit in 1U that would be great, 2U is OK.<br>
<br>
I see a ton of options out there but it seems that a typical setup is to<br>
purchase a rack mount KVM and pair it with a rack mount workstation. I'm<br>
not against that per se, (and clearly it makes upgrading easier) but I have<br>
a mild preference for it to all be one unit.<br>
<br>
I know how to Google, but I thought I'd hit the list in the event that<br>
someone wants to chime in with experience like "we use [blank] all the time<br>
and they're great"<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance,<br>
<br>
-Mike<br>
