    Ok so my screen on my laptop broke as in spider web broke. I have a Compaq Presario V6500Z and I want to know if the Current model HP screens (for example HP Pavilion DV6113US screen) are compatible and interchangable with the compaq since both companies share the same parts. I know this may sound like a question but I just want to make sure it's possible.

    Now would you recommend replacing the screen on the laptop or just get a whole new laptop all in all.
