My new hobby project is to try to get an LCD display (with frame) replaced into my old G4 PowerBook 1.5 GHz.

I was wondering if it is possible to use any of the displays from the PowerBook G4 17" line for my PowerBook G4 1.5 GHz?

For example, has any one out their had any success moving a PowerBook G4 17" 1.0 Ghz display into a PowerBook G4 17" 1.5 GHz?

Thanks! Todd

Looks like the Aluminum PowerBooks 17" display assemblies 1, 1.33, 1.5 or 1.67 (1440x900) GHz are swappable but not the 1.67 high resolution according to ifixit.com
