Actually, this thread is more on topic then not.

IBM made several models of color VGA monitors for the PS/2 line that fit
your description. If you find one of these, it would likely need repairs
to get it back into top shape, due to its age. The only other small VGA
monitors I've seen that were this size have been open frame. Typically
these can be found for around $20-50 new from surplus dealers.
