(OT) Laptop Repair

[H. Kurth Bemis]

If you are handy with a screwdriver and plastic butterknife and observe 
static safety, you can replace it yourself in a few minutes.  You can 
easily find the a replacement LCD replacement on eBay or another 
vendor.  My experiences have been that the replacement will cost 
anywhere from $120 to about $200, depending upon laptop brand.  I had to 
replace the screen in a Vaio once, LCD alone was $295, so be glad you 
don't own one of those.

Typically it's the labor that inflates the price.  If you can do it, I 
would say go for it.  If you would like more information I can provide 
it and I'm sure the list can as well.

Good Luck.
