I have to agree, the PB1xx series are my favourite machine to work on, take the two case pieces apart and everything's right in front of you. :)

Speaking of replacing the LCD panels in these machines, I have to point out one thing - do not adjust the position of the display with the faceplate removed - the faceplate provides strength for the display casing, and with it removed, you run the risk of breaking the mounts for the hinges. I know this because over the years I've broken two of them myself, and now I unscrew and remove the entire, intact display assembly from the machine before playing with the panels.
