My dell 6000 uses a LP154W02 (b1)(k2) display, i've seen ones being sold with the same LP154W02 model but (b1)(K5) or k6 etc. or glossy. would these actually be compatible? or are mounting points and such changed with revisions or whatever? annoyingly confusing..and sites don't give much info on what they are selling:(

yea i thought that too, but theres no way to know:(
and returning such things if i buy a wrong one isn't simple...restocking fee's/shipping etc. i guess i chose not to make that gamble. i figure it could be revision, or the mounting points could be different which would be bad.
