2008-YGP screen replacement

#1 Post by dwilsonfl » Sat Dec 10, 2011 3:21 pm

Dropped it, cracked the LCD. Thought I had a replacement but when it came in it is too wide and the hinges don't fit. It was a 1400x1050 before. Do I need to just get a 15" screen?

Guess I'll be posting a 15.4 on the Marketplace soon. I thought the one I had was widescreen but apparently it's just a 15". Any body want to swap?

Yes, you need a 15" 4:3 screen, not a 15.4" wide.

Good opportunity to upgrade to 1600x1200 if you're up for it...no, I don't have one to sell you...

Happy hunting.

I just couldn't resist the temptation, Dave...of creating another UXGA convert/addict... :twisted:

You can always do the 15" SXGA+. I have that in my R60e and it's a more palatable 115 pixel density.
