gilsaluki Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 $20 from Best, but you have to pay their crazy shipping charges. But, you get a really well-packaged box with Atari packing tape all over it. With green, environmental peanuts for packing. And some not-so-environmental product flyers packed in.

HunterZero Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 The McWill Lynx screen replacements are expensive, require moderately challenging soldering to install, but this mod is TOTALLY WORTH IT. If you decide to go this route and aren't confident on doing the soldering yourself, you can likely find someone on the forums here to help. Before...

gilsaluki Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I have a McWill. I agree with all above. If $ is no object, go for it. If $ is tight, install the fairly easy to install Best replacement. No soldering required, just patience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdp Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Best? Sorry if this is a really silly question. I'm guessing that is an American website? I'm based in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
