Hey fellas
I recently dropped my 2010 macbook pro 15 i5. The Mac's fine, but the LCD's damaged beyond repair as confirmed by apple store. I'm not even slightly interested in forking out the $700 to get a new housing fitted. Im quite well educated when it comes to electrical repairs and feel that i could comfortably manage swapping out the LCD. What i wanted to know, i noticed the 1680x1050 panel is only $40 extra over the 1400x900 panel. Would I be able to install the higher res panel? Will i face any software niggles doing this?
Any info would be very handy and much appreciated,
