Hi

My Titanium 15" Powerbook just did a 3' gainer onto the floor (French judge scored it a 4.7) and although the machine is ok the LCD is "no bueno". Applecare doesn't cover "Acrobatics" and it looks like I'd be into it for over a grand for them to fix it.

I'm not afraid of "DIY" and this is a pretty easy one. Do any fellow sluts have experience changing LCDs? I found a couple of third party sources for parts, ScreenTek, PowerBookMedic, LCDs4Less (not a confidence boosting name but cheapest source nevertheless). Anyone have recommendations?
