Micro Display Systems in Hastings MN has such a display - I don't know all
the technical details, I just saw one in a demo.  It had a large portrait
display with probably more than 50 or 60 lines, black-on-white.
I saw DOS boot on it and I listed a directory, so there's at least some level
of compatibility - mabey only text mode?   It was also capable of bitmap
graphics.
