Yamaha AW2400 24 track digital recorder deck

Asked about repairing one that someone lent on and split the large 12 line,
or so, LCD display. I don't often see computer type audio kit.
Yamaha no help on replacement screen. Owner could still use it via a pc to
operate it but he used it mainly on gig sites so PC was inconvenient.
I advised borrowing a palmtop, notebook or laptop to try replacing the pc
and then obtain a second hand one fixed to the Yamaha. Is this a standard
"repair" technique for such kit ? Is there a favourite small portable "PC"
for this sort of fix , not just Yamaha but other makes of kit with large
irreplaceable operational screens.
