Hi Sean,

Thanks for the insight!  I actually ordered one off ebay.
For $39 how could a guy resist.

I think what I'll do is mess around with the PS1 LCD and
see what I can come up with.  My eventual plan is to make it
"fit" the //c better than it would out of the box.  As well as
I'm hoping I can get it take it's power from the RGB
or power connector on the back of the //c.  From the RGB
connector would be better, then it would work with a //c plus.

Ahhh Replica 1 - been meaning to get one of those!

Thanks again for the report.

Later,
Craig
