Hi all,
I bought a macbook pro last year off ebay, perfect condition, great software, nothing wrong with it. I had it in a traveling bag and it was dropped on the road, and the backlight broke. The screen, still works, as I'm typing on my computer now and have been for over a year, I have to use a spotlight to see my computer, so it's kind of a huge pain. I took it into apple and they quoted me some crazy number like $1800 to fix the light in my screen. I was just wondering if there was an outside company that can fix my light, or would it be better to sell my computer (it's completely functional aside from the light of the screen) and salvage the money from that to purchase a new computer.
Thanks.
