What other laptops are using this screen at present? I went and saw this screen and it is very good. But I'm hesitant to pay upwards of $1950 just for this screen. I do not need the i5 or i7 or the discrete graphics. What I do need is a high quality screen, good ergonomics, and long battery life.

The Dell latitude E6500 used an identical panel back in the day about 2 years ago, but that laptop was ruined by a piss poor touchpad, really the worst one that I have ever used.

Anyone heard of any other manufacturers using this screen? Alternatively, do you think that this screen would fit in my old macbook pro if I manually put it in myself (if a source even exists)?
