    Due to the graininess of my 1520, I would want to replace the screen with my 1505's, if possible.

    Specs are as following:
    1520 - RW985 samsung WSXGA+
    1505 - FF058 AUO WSXGA+

    I asked Dell, and they said probably not compatible, because they use different grapic cards (1505 uses ATI X1400 and 1520 has Geforce 8600), but the guy was not 100% sure..

    Can anybody confirm that? I am pretty disappointed that Samsung screen is worse than Taiwanese... :/
