in [Laptops]

From: Teknyske on 1 Mar 2005 02:05 The backlight of my laptop's LCD-screen (IBM Thinkpad X20, 12.2"-screen) is defective. The image is still displayed correctly although very faintly. I did some research and found out that there are two possible causes for this: 1) Broken CCFL light bulb 3) Broken inverter I will start by replacing the light bulb (length +- 250 mm, thickness +- 2 mm). The following two USA-based (web)shops are selling these components: - Mouser Electronics http://www.mouser.com/ - Digi-Key http://digi-key.com/ => In order to avoid high shipping costs, I am looking for some Europe-based (Belgian ?) (web)shops that sell these bulbs to end-users. Any suggestions ? Many thanks in advance ! Teknyske

When you look at the shipping costs for these items separately, it will pay to have them both shipped as one order. -- Jerry G. ====== "Teknyske" <TeknyskeNOSPM(a)belgacom.net> wrote in message news:42241424$0$28063$ba620e4c(a)news.skynet.be...
