This has always been the Dana vHack I've most wanted to have as a real-life unit sitting in my study.

Ditto. Well, I did suggest it after all.

Is there any portrait or flat-panel monitor with the right dimensions to pull this off?

A bigger problem might be extending the aperture vertically on the front panel. It would be pretty impossible to make it look as good as the picture. Getting that nice rounded edge going up the sides isn't possible to reproduce because the plastic just isn't there.

By my (very) crude calculations, a 10.4" monitor should work. I forget if rotating for portrait display is a function of the monitor, video card, or both.

You could just use the plastic from two fronts
