Need the mainboard for a 23" Cinema Display HD NOT the inverter. applepalace.com seems to be out of business... anyone know where I can get this or have one for sale? E-bay hasn't been any help.

The acrylic displays were allowed to be repaired by AASPs, so the parts were plentiful. The aluminums were required to be shipped to a depot for repair because of the aluminum casing (that required a $20,000 piece of equipment to bend it open slightly to take the guts out and in). For that reason, the only way to get parts are from displays that are parted out... and even still, most people probably don't have the ability to open the aluminum casing.

Your best bet is to find a cracked a display and take it apart.

Actually I took the display apart and was quite easy to do, I don't recall bending anything to get it apart.
