I have recently begun to experience some strange blinking patterns and
various red spots on my LCD, which I can only attribute to dying
pixels and other problems with the LCD. I bought a replacement LCD
off Ebay and intend to replace it myself (otherwise, it's $800 through
the Thinkpad service center; they won't allow this replacement under
warranty).
Before I embark on this mission, I was wondering if the procedure is
really as straightforward as it seems. Are there any pitfalls I
should be particularly wary of in replacing the LCD? I'd appreciate
hearing about any of your experiences with this.
Thanks,
Jim
