My laptop's screen is all fucked, with a dozen vertical lines running through it.. with a few more adding every couple weeks. It was driving me nuts, but I don't want to spend the $120 to buy a brand new LCD screen for a $1000 (when I bought it) laptop that is probably only worth about 300 now.
Thinking myself rather handy I took the whole thing apart last night, hoping to see that it was just an unseated inverter cable or something. All looked well, and it took me almost another hour to put the thing back together again. Looks like it's a new LCD or a new laptop for me. :-/
