we lurk, no lie

that is really much less than the scope of what our project was. Best i can tell you is to take apart a small, RCA in LCD (like 2"-4") and make a widget for windows that displays what you want, be it from yahoo or vista. Make sure that the background is pure black. Put some wicked bright Cree LEDs behind that. At that distance, you don'nt need a fresnel lens. Add some cheap tint, and you're good to go.

well the idea is to display diagnostic data, and i want the area to be large enough to display multiple 'gauges,' or at least one large enough to see in my peripheral vision i.e. tach, speed, etc.

also, i'm hoping to get the least visual interference (no tint if possible-reflective film) and no double reflection (reason for the polarized film) and for it to be visible during the daylight hours.

but yes, it is considerably more scaled back from the original project. i'm worried less about input and very much more about quality output.
