Very true that each LCD type uses a specific cable, but I'm gonna guess that Beniamino asks if he can plug a different display into whatever logic board he has. All PBs 190/5300 have the same logic board connector, so while each different LCD type's cable is unique, all cables share the same type logic-board-end connector. I'm positive that any 190/5300 can use a B/W or color passive display. However (IIRC) only a 5300 logic board with 1MB vram can use a TFT display. Hmmm, _do_ I recall that correctly? Anyone, anyone . . . ?
