If you are building your own case for everything, I would consider taking an
LCD monitor and taking the guts out of it, then you could build it into your
case however you would like.  Also wouldn't have to worry as much about
venting due to lack of heat and such.  Of course it wouldn't look as
vintage, but it won't look much that way anyhow in a homebrew case...
Should be able to pick up a 15 or 17" LCD at a thrift store pretty cheap
these days...

Now for finding the monitor: been looking for something reasonable to attach
this thing to. The Apple 15" Studio Display w/ VGA connector seems to go for
some serious cash for some reason, so that is out. Most PC monitors look
like crap, and I'd have to revamp them to make them look decent. Not sure I
want to take a huge dive on to that. One person suggested an old iMac G4
display, but I think that would be a lot of work to make it run w/ a VGA
signal (if even possible). 

I'll reach out to you all for suggestions.
