Can I swap the screen on my 2.2 Whitebook for a higher quality screen, better resolution if possible but not essential. Not bothered whether its matte or glossy.

Sorry if this has been posted before.

Oh lastly I have technical experience so the swapping of the screens shouldn't be too hard.
 
if you search these forums you will find out that it has been done. people have broken and replaced their screens or bought a macbook with a broken screen and changed them, sometimes for a matte screen and it works well enough. problem is finding a model that will work. be careful. i know how you feel the macbook screen is a disappointment and its hard not to take it personally that the mac hardware developers deliberately underbuy components as a sales technique.
