I have a toshiba 4015CDS PII 266mhz laptop that was bought years ago. It's been my most reliable computer, but I could never use it for extended periods of time with the HPA screen. Is there a way to switch the screen to a TFT so I could make this my primary laptop? Thanks.

If toshiba made a "up model" with the better screen you would just need to track that part down

pay $400 for it on ebay or a shoddy refurb parts dealer, worry about it fitting with the bezel/cables, worry about a DOA or bad pixels, and still end up with a PII 266
