[GRLUG] LCD replacement screen source

[David Wise]

I've done one or two screen replacements before.  It's not a lot of
experience, but enough to know I can make it work.  I know the laptop isn't
a great one, but the Mother-in-law doesn't use it for much and it's a whole
lotta more computer than what I just got working for her as an interim
(using Mint Debian, no less).  4GB of RAM plus a 500GB HDD and a "decent"
processor is a large sight more impressive than the P4 2.53Ghz with maybe a
GB and a half RAM and 60GB HDD.  If I can find her one for under a hundred,
she'll probably fix it up.  Internet browsing doesn't take much.
