Hi I've been playing around with a few images trying to work out which one is right for me. One issue that this has created is having to manually make changes to files each time.

m looking for a 1080p IPS screen for a project I'm making. the smallest I can find is 11.6 inch. which is just too big by about 1cm! sucks big time... so I'm thinking I've seen people use replacement iPad 2 screens (1024 x 768) with a 3rd party HDMI controller board with RPis which the Pi can handle...
