I'm new and was looking into switching my 12" powerbook screen (It's cracked) with a 12" Ibook screen. Does anyone know if this will work or are these two things not compatible at all? Thanks in advance!!

That would not work at all. The screens are different sizes, with the hinges going in different places and closing mechanisms are different

are they two sizes, I thought they were both 12? I was just talking about the LCD, not the casing and everything else? Thanks again.

Do some research on the PN's of both displays, the check the MFG specs. It's possible if the actual size (outside dimensions) are the same and the input signaling and pins are the same.
