Cracked Laptop Screen

Comment:

Hi, On a recent trip the screen on my notebook was cracked across. It still functions- sort of. Is it possible to replace the screen, if so where best to take it (I'm in Indianapolis if that matters) and what, ballpark, should I expect it to cost? The machine is just out of warranty and I doubt this damage would be covered anyways. Any input would be great. Thanks, Dave

Below is the least exspensive I could find,but getting a new one for about $500.00 to 600.00 dollars is almost as logical. http://cgi.ebay.com/TOSHIBA-SATELLI...
