Right, got the rack mount base unit together and kicking, now need to look at getting a screen, keys and mouse together in a rack.

Any ideas for mounting the screen? I would ideally like to have it mounted vertically above the base unit in a 12 - 14u rack, although i'm happy to learn about anyone that has had a good result from a different method.

Input greatly appriciated :D

they are great, i fit them as part of the day job, not cheap though, £500 - £600 for a good one, and you need a deep cab to mount it in. Still all good fun though, makes you feel like you are in an episode of 24 everytime you open one up....(or is that just me)

Yup seen those before. Very nice.

Although i'm sure they are worth the money, i'm looking for something ideally I could use to rack mount a standard screen, similar to 'ears' used on mixers.
