    Well its a case of give em a bell, get a feeling of how proffessional they sound
    not just some bloke shouting, ere arry how much for this.....

    And get the goods or repair on a Credit Card as then youve got protection
    but phone yer bank to make sure.......


    1 and 3 look the best, but thats just in my humble opinion...

    P.S That was my son's voice..... :j :rotfl:

    You can usually salvage the casing and just slip out the screen...
    after releasing the screws

    Skinty just had a quick look on a couple of the websites and the screens i can see for laptops are still £2-300 pounds is it really this expensive for a screen? if it is i reckon my mate is going to have to claim on his house/pet insurance.
