I use a LinITX screen:

Works very well for HA purposes.  Only issue I have had is getting the
pc to drive it at it's native 800x480 res.  In the endup driving at a
higher widescreen resolution that the pc video card does support and
it works very well.

So good but check your pc video card will drive it or get one of the
4:3 versions instead!
