    Of course my warranty doesn't cover accidental damages, even though anything that happens to your computer that requires you to contact the warranty was an accident. *annoyed*

    Anyways, my screen is cracked, and the liquid crystal has come out making black spots cover my screen. Now I won't be able to fix this until September when I have the 498 dollars to do so. Will any damage happen if I wait that long?

    No damage to the rest of the computer, the screen may get worse.

    Have you thought about using the DPA or Dell Preferred Account to pay for the repairs faster? You can anyway use an external monitor in the meantime.
