    Anyone know where I might be able to find a 17" LED backlid display?

    I wanna upgrade my notebook a bit and am looking at displays. I know people have upgraded and downgraded the displays on my model series (p7811fx, p7801u, p7805u fx ), but I'm looking at taking it a step further. My eyes are sensitive to halogen back lit displays (60hrz flicker, so halogen in general). I really like to look of LED back lit. So anyone know of a good place?

    I come from a build it yourself PC background and was really excited with the prospect of the original C90s release (and sorely disappointed). Thus far I have been beyond happy with the p7811. I've added a Blu-ray drive, Internal Bluetooth, and a second 200GB HDD for Raid 0. Others have upgraded the display, to 8GB of RAM, the CPU to 3Ghz+ (sad fully no quads) and better network cards. I wanna still upgrade the CPU, RAM and possibly the display too.
