I have several old Laptop's with great screens and I was looking for a way to interface one of them to a Raspberry Pi 2 for portability. After a few Google searches I found this adapter that seems quite interesting. It does support HDMI+DVI+VGA+Audio. @US $37.89 (+ shipping from Guangdong, China) it`s a reasonable price. At first it looked like I could also use it for troubleshooting laptop screens but they have to be programmed per LCD screen which is a bit of a drawback. In one of the pictures on the website I noticed a Raspberry Pi logo :)
