Does anyone know where I can find a higher resolution LCD for my poor clamshell? I love it to bytes but I cannot for the life of me use 800X600.

Is that even possible? Aren't the connectors and dimensions all non-standard and proprietary and mean?

I'd love it if it was.

Yeah I saw that, problem is it needs the ATI card with 8MB not 4MB which is what I have. It's worth a try I guess...

When I read that I thought "isn't the snow iBook's display connectors different?" I guess not.

Hrm. 4 MB should be sufficient for up to 1280x800 at 24-bit (Millions) color.
