    What's the best course of action to fix a cracked screen? What would be the estimated cost of sending it to Acer?

    Or, should I get a replacement part? And is the best place to get one is from Acer, or ebay or ???

    You could probably do it yourself if it's just the screen that's cracked.

    The replacement screens on eBay are going for about $80 USD shipped.

    Cheers,

    Thanks.

    Got feedback from Acer and it was going to be $200 + Shipping to get it repaired by them. Which is not a big shock.

    So I think I'll grab a screen on ebay.
