Although I have not found actual pricing, anecdotal information appears to suggest that a 24 inch by 24 inch panel from Roscoe is $700. An identical product from Nu World is said to be around $400. Since a 21 inch LCD monitor is less than $200 and has a backlight , I am wondering if there is a cheaper source of BLs.
