Someone else request opaque white. I really want to do one in white but he'd like 2 requests first. Think how cool and spacey this would look in white!

Thanks for the info everyone! I'm sure more questions are to come. I will try to make the best of the search funtion and all the previous write-ups but it is always nice to have reassurance from someone. ;)

So I want an LCD compatible with HD44780 right? Just make it basic and easy for me, I don't care about my options I'm already confused as it is and may have messed up my smash order in an attempt to correct is by having him do code that worked with HD61202. You know what would be nice is either a very simple guide for newbie idiots like myself or a complete kit from smash. I’ve really been meaning to attempt this project for over a year now but there is just so much information and so many options I’ve already spent hours on the site and have probably read everything related to the sid and still feel lost. I don’t want options, I just want to know the basics I need to make the simple LCD + 9 button sid. I’ve ordered the core kit, the sid kit, a 64k bankstick, and rotary from smash. Now, I think I need the DIN kit as well and didn’t order that but I’m not even completely sure I need it. On the pic header I did all 0’s but yesterday I asked to have that changed due to the info above and now it looks like I need to request that it is done with all 0’s again… Anything I’ve missed as I’m obviously already off to a precarious start?

So I've had a C64 for a while and decided to "bite the bullet" and make an order through smash. I need to pick up a 2X20 LCD but I'm not completely sure what kind. Will this work? http://cgi.ebay.com/Fantastic-20x2-Character-OLED-LCD-Module-Display_W0QQitemZ230252261536QQihZ013QQcategoryZ26206QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Anywhere else I should look for cheaper prices or better quality for the price?

Good price, better than any 20X2 prices I've found. I'm new and just about to order all the stuff to build my first basic midibox sid (and hopefully grow it from there). Will this work ok for that application or do I need to do something special to use the 20X4 format?
