    Well you cannot buy a bigger screen inside your small case, but you can buy a new brighter, higher resolution screen:

    ScreenTek are a big company specialising in LCD screens for Notebooks. Just select the one you want, look carefully at the specifications, and make sure you take a look at the "LCD Removal Instructions" section.

    I replaced the screen in an old Latitude CP, changed it from a 12" to a 13". It went reasonably well, no problems with it. I later gave the computer away as I received a faster, more up to date laptop.

    It turned out it was later stolen lol
