(sigh) That's the way the laptop crumbles.

I may take you up on that offer. I'll look around here and let you know if there's not a laptop computer graveyard. There is a laptop just like mine on eBay right now, but the funny thing is... it has the same problem as mine.
I wasn't going to throw it out. I was just going to hook up a CRT monitor via the VGA out on the back. I would just have to change my bartop plans to accommodate.
SteveJ34:
Ya, I agree with tmasman....I know the place he is talking about.
I refer to it as "the boneyard" and it would be well worth the postage to investigate if you do not have a similar type of location in your neck of the woods.
Witchboard:
I'll make some calls today and see if there's anything like that here. If not I'll drop tmasman a PM. Thanks guys for the info. Who says sulking on a public forum never gets you anywhere? ;D
DemonBrew:
Ebay is a good place to look for the replacement parts. Example: my wife's 5 year old laptop touchpad was acting up. I couldn't find the part on Dell's site. I went to ebay, did a search on touchpad and ended up buying the entire palmrest with touchpad included for $5 (plus shipping). And there were TONS of listings for this particular model. Now that's a bargain.
Lilwolf:
There is also conductive glue that might work for you...
