Not cheaper, but I have had great luck with these displays.. I have several from this manufacturer. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00G60FJNG/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1427588272&sr=8-1&keywords=tontec+7+inch+lcd+touch+screen+720x480&dpPl=1&dpID=41jtTo9cefL&ref=plSrch&pi=AC_SY200_QL40
It was this item which I see is no longer available, unless Tontech upgraded the hardware?
I saw a similar one, no case for less than 1/2 that. I think a lot of them are the same panel.

Plus tax.
7", HDMI input, $48.
Or check Craigslist for used monitors. HDMI to DVI adapters are cheap.
I have not tried this myself, but stumbled across it on a search a few days ago: Tontec 7" Raspberry Pi LCD Display Screen TFT Monitor AT070TN90 with HDMI VGA Input Driver Board Controller

This is the LCD I used. Its not too bad!
Thanks! I have an old Macintosh SE that I'm currently taking apart and am going to be turning it into a Retro Gaming Console too.
I'm definitely going to be following this post for some tips about setting the RetroPi system up. Next part is going to be mounting this screen inside the Mac and getting everything linked up.
I just have a few questions if you get a chance:
I've been using one of these: http://www.amazon.com/Tontec%C2%AE-Raspberry-Display-AT070TN90-Controller/dp/B00G60FJNG
Works very well. No touchscreen (although you can get one), but for an arcade cabinet, do you really need one?

It works with anything, but you need to buy the power separately. Pretty good deal if you ask me.
I'm told you can install Ubuntu on a raspberry Pi. All you need after that is to set up your calendar software (I generally use google calendar, so all I'd need is a browser), and a permanent monitor set on the wall. Here is one specifically for the raspberry pi.
Edit: Also, it's more expensive, but using a touchscreen instead of a normal screen may be a useful addition.
