Bart, expect to pay anywhere from 100 to 200 bucks for a screen for 
your machine, depending upon which vendor might have it. I looked at 
one or two and didn't specifically see the 270c screen, but I would 
say that's a good price point.

It's likely you could find a dead 270c for that much or even less, 
and that would the route I would take if it's a machine I just had to 
keep, and coulnd't afford to replace.

This happened to me last year and I saw it as an opportunity to 'go 
new'. Something to think about.
