Hi Rich M. Thank You for the advice. I checked around my area and though I believe your right (the screen runs about $70 per Google Search) the cheapest price for repair was $336. I complained to Dell for quite a long time and got them to do the repair for $199-all included, probably since it was less than a yr old. FYI, if anyone else does this, Dell made me pay up front by charging the full cost before sending a box to ship the product to them for repair.
