    I have dell coming to replace my chi mei screen. Supposed to be sending a TMD LED screen. This is what the online call tag says:
    CX059 SERVICE KIT..., LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY..., 13.3, Wide Extended Graphics Array..., VIDEO ELEC. STDS. ASSOC...., TLF

    Isn't this just yet another Chi Mei screen?! I had a replacement notebook sent that was chi mei also nasty looking. So i agreed to have them send a TMD screen and install it even though my laptop is new but is this is another chi mei they can forget about opening up my computer.

    Hi, it looks like a Toshiba screen with the TLF tag at the end. Does it have any words to the effect of Transformer Metroplex Desktop? That would confirm it as a Toshiba.

    That's funny; in another thread here, the OP's call tag info posted above is determined to be a CMO screen.

    I've got the exact same thing coming as a replacement for mine.

    Anyone know FOR SURE what cx059 is? I'm pretty sure "TLF" doesn't stand for Toshiba. I thought "TMD" was the clue that it was a Toshiba.
