So, in case ya'll didn't know, I broke my computer somehow.

And now they're charging me $400 for it, since it's not covered by warranty.

Great...just fuckin' great.

Any help on a) how to replace a laptop screen, or b) anything you can think of otherwise would be greatly appreciated...I don't wanna spend $400 on a manufacturing fault.

If it's just the screen that's bad, depending on the make and model, it may be possible to get a replacement screen off eBay and change it yourself for less than $100. 

I've done it several times before. It's not the easiest thing to do, as you (usually) have to deal with a lot of small screws and delicate cables.

Do a Google search for your model of laptop and "replace screen", and see if you can find a tutorial/guide/video on replacing it. Then decide for yourself if it's something you'd feel comfortable fixing on your own or not.
