If the screen never lights up it may be a GLOD or a screen issue. The external monitor is a good idea.
Seems pretty obvious @ this point that it's a screen issue. In fact, occasionally the screen will blink like it's _trying_ to display -- seems almost more like a loose connection than anything else; does that make sense?
Beginning to think this is gonna be more trouble than it's worth if it means I have to take the thing in for repairs. :P Still, it's got nice mods, a good big harddrive, plenty of memory... and it's the PB I wanted ever since I saw it. So if getting the screen repaired isn't prohibitively expensive, I may go for it... advice?
