<FONT FACE="Verdana"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>My friend gave me his Ti 400mhz 15” cuz he dropped it a few times and now the case is split open in a few places (and duct-taped). It actually works just fine, but it’s a little awkward to open and close (not securely attached to the left hinge) and there are now vertical lines in two places on the screen. But I’m still very happy to have gotten it as a gift! (He convinced his parents to buy him a new one!)<BR>
<BR>
Anyway, the Apple store here in Cleveland said it would be $1100—1300 to fix the screen; do you know of some 3rd-party businesses that do this significantly cheaper, and would you trust them to do it? Or should I just deal with it and be thankful, until I can save up for a new Powerbook?<BR>
<BR>
Thanks for your feedback.<BR>

Peace,<BR>
