Suggestions for a cheapo portable monitor

LukeLinusFanFic

So I have the surface pro, and sometimes when I'm working on stuff it could really help to have a second display I can just snag out of my bag and connect. 

 

I saw a bunch of usb monitor on Amazon but it's all really expensive. I don't give two damns about the resolution though - it's basically for document viewing. Is it realistic to find something like that closer to 50$? (Surface has only mini dp but I have a butt ton of adapters)

I once gave Luke and Linus pizza.

I think the cheapest I've seen is about $100 and that's for a terrible quality monitor. The one I ended up with which was decent quality cost me $300.

eBay is your friend. You can get an 8" monitor for around $40-60 with a VGA input.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

you could try and look for portable monitors for consoles.. some of them are under 13" with somewhat good resolutions (not that i owned one before) but its a good place to look
