Folks,
I am so tired of laptops with crappy displays that I am exploring the option of replacing a laptop's stock LCD panel with an IPS LCD Panel. I plan to buy an inexpensive notebook with a broken screen and replace the panel with an IPS Panel. Now, I understand that this is not a trivial exercise and I will have to do some research on matching connectors and panel sizes and so on but I am willing to do the research to make sure a laptop matches with an LCD IPS Panel. I have the following questions
1. My first question is where do I find an IPS Panel in a standard notebook size (16:10 or 16:9). Is there a website that sells replacement LCD Panels?
2. Is this a sane exercise with a chance of success? Do replacement LCDs come with some semblance of a standardized connector that will hook up to my notebook?
