Well, I would not call replacing the LCD itself an "easy" fix, unless
one really know your stuff. It's doable of course, but easily one of the
hardest repair operations to undertake on a titanium.  I realize you
most likely mentioned the take apart instructions as a way to get more
info on what could be wrong and as a learning experience. I'd rather get
a complete display myself, if possible.

I assume you impled getting a complete display with cables, housing,
hinges and all? That's  available for less than $200. Found one for $149
plus  $13.75 freight.

I'm not sure I would do this for anything less than a 1Ghz machine, but
I've spent on my 400 during the years. I crashed my display in 2006 and
got a replacement display from somewhere, must have been my friends
machine I think that he gave to me as trash (car accident). I also
bought a complete 1Ghz for about $250 (in swedish currency) with a burnt
motherboard. I'd love to get a replacement board, but they are too
expensive for me at the moment. I could go $250 for one when I have the money.
