Re: Display
I would go to goodwill and grab an monitor there. I just found a 1600x1200 PVA screen for 5 bucks.

Re: Display
None of those are HDMI displays, so they won't work as a normal monitor.
You can connect a couple of the display breakouts to the GPIO pins to work like a PiTFT, but the connections will be a mess. You can work them out from the schematics in the PiTFT tutorials:

but we don't provide any support for that kind of project. We created the PiTFT to avoid having to deal with the problems in projects like that.
