    Well.. I had my 6831FX in its bag behind my sofa (sofa is in the middle of the room) got up to get some water and tripped over the bag and landed on it. All seems well except the screen is now shattered. I was toying with the idea of getting a 1680x1050, but I may just get a direct replacement. The only 1680x1050 screens I found on eBay were in Canada and I'd rather not have to worry about it being abused by Customs (unpacked and repacked). If amyone has a stock screen laying around from an upgrade and wants to sell it, let me know.. Otherwise, anyone know a reasonable and quality source for a screen?
