Not much at all. I spotted a few uVAX 2000's and a uVAX 3100.

I'm very familiar with them; I wrote the LCDProc driver for the B.G.Micro
"PIC-an-LCD" serial<->LCD adapter chip. From the white tent in the back
corner of the flea market, I got a box of 20x2 florescent displays for $20
(different protocol, same concept as the LCDs).
If you want to write offline about interfacing LCDs, let me know.
