Broken Compaq LCD....what are my options

I tripped on the power cord and the laptop took a spill. The screen is damaged so bad you cannot see anything but cracks. It is a 3 year old Comaq Presario that can't be worth more than $400-$500. Can I get a replacement LCD or should I just junk it?

Thanks, Steve

BTW: I just ordered a eMachines m6811 to replace it

Junk it, I'm afraid. The screen replacement would probably cost more than the system is worth.

Look for a screen on e-bay. That's your best option. Aside from that, connect it to an external monitor and it will run fine. You can also sell it for parts on e-bay if you just want to get rid of it.
