I've been playing about with this Display Port Panel which uses an iPad 4 Retina screen. So you have a 10 inch 2048x1568 LCD screen, very high quality hooked up to you PC / Mac. Could be useful to some here like this:

Actually - I bought the driver board from Adafruit, and got the LCD off EBay, works out a lot cheaper ($80 for the Driver Board, and LCD I've seen in the USA at least for as low as $30! That's the beauty of using a mass produced Apple part. Bit pricier in other countries, but even so a very high quality screen, for not much money. You'd need to make a housing for it to keep it from damage.
