    I had a Lenevo X300.
    Its display is not working after 3 months. I have been told that LCD screen has small crack.

    The part will cost $900+.

    The company who does well in long term provide reliable product and accessories/maintainence on resonable price. It is very obvious that part does not cost $900 when company is selling Lenevo X300 with lcp/processor/dvd/memory/camera/bag + sales commision in $1350.

    :mad:

    Please provide info if anyone is aware of how to get this part at reasonable price

    I just got my 1680x1050 15.4" glossy panel from Smartmicrousa.com off of eBay for $180 shipping included. Very high quality LG/Philips display.

    If you need this actual size one like I got I'd sell the old matte (non-glossy) one for $150. It only has 4 hours use on it. I just wanted the glossy is the only reason I swapped mine out.
