If it is a desktop replacement laptop then I'm assuming that it is filled with pretty good parts and a big screen. On that basis I'd say the £250 is a good price - obviously there is the cost of the screen and the cost of getting somebody to do it - not something I'd try after I stuffed up my old one messing with the screen. Also I'd imagine that it's spec somewhat beats the £350 dell laptop.

Until you consider that Dell sell laptops for £350.

Its a massive desktop replacement laptop.. so I might just buy a PC LCD screen, and use the laptop as a desktop, and buy a new smaller laptop.

Pretty expensive mistake.

Do you not have insurance that would cover this?

Our business insurance includes accidental damage to comapny owned equipment.

Agreed - I found it was cheaper (in the long run) to replace the laptop rather than pay almost £400 for a screen replacement..

You can try this lot: http://www.techno-mart.co.uk/ - quote on the phone without seeing the machine if you give them a description of the problem.

Broken Laptop Screen

I picked my laptop up and then 1 hand slipped leaving just one hand n the top corner holding it.... crack

Now it has a massive white strip dwn the right hand side. I am assuming it is pked and needs a full replacement. Its an ASUS G2, anyone had experience replacing a laptop screen and recomend a good place n Londonium?
