    Just wondering if it'd be possible at all to upgrade the screen in my laptop. 1080p 15.6 inch Dell Precision M4500. It'd have to be the same size and connector. I've had some experience with using different model panels in a laptop. (When I was younger I broke my laptop screen and duct taped in one that was 1-2 inches smaller and had the same connectors.. Worked for months.)

    Say, a nice IPS 1080p panel, or even a higher resolution. Possible at all or am I just dreaming?
