[QUOTE="Stokestack, post: 1846872, member: 404255"] Haha, that's pretty funny. To answer your question: Yes, you probably can buy an LCD driver kit to convert the iMac into a monitor. I just did this with a dead 27" iMac. The driver boards are about $60-80, but they're specific to the LCD panel you're using them with. You'd have to open up the iMac and get the model number of the LCD panel. You're probably better off selling the iMac (or just the panel) on eBay and buying a used computer. [/QUOTE]
