and the link to the ifixit guide to that mod... i'm sure it will work for the 15 inch version as well!

good luck!

I should try this. What is the currently recommended panel to get, anyone knows?

i actually did swap out the screen on my a1095 with a hires panel from a dead beat-up DLSD, you have to relocate the magnet to where it was on the lowres panel so the computer can sleep, and i think you need to switch out the display cable. it works though, and with an overclock to 1.67GHz and a dual layer superdrive installed, it's technically a DLSD/HR powerbook. it even has 128MB of VRAM, but it doesn't have DDR2 memory. (what was the point of that anyway?)
