Broken Laptop Screen isn’t the End of the Road

Broken LCD

Ever drop or step on your laptop by accident? If so, you probably broke the fragile LCD screen and figured that it was the end of your laptop’s life.

I found this nice little tip that explains how to fix your own LCD screen. The DIY instructions are for an Apple iBook, but I’m sure other laptops are put together in a similar fashion.

    Thanks for the tip, but laptop screens usually cost more than the laptop itself.

    Well, this is good news. It is a relief to find out that broken LCD screens are not a reason to cry your heart out (I do that, and I’m not kidding here). Yay! It’s recoverable.
