Cell Phone Post: Last finals week


This is what a laptop screen looks like when dropped off a table onto a linoleum floor:

When I called dell to get information, they kindly offered to send me a replacement for only $450, I kindly replied that the laptop itself was not worth that much and that I was only looking for a part number. They gave me one, but of course it wasn't real, if you look closely at the picture above, you can see the frame is removed so that I could get at the real part number on the back. Enter ebay, and less than $110 later, this is the final product. It made me feel very useful to be able to fix this myself.
