Welcome to TechIMO!

Well...the only way you could probably do that would be to contact the original manufacturer of the laptop...

I don't think you would get much selling it as is, but you could part it out, and sell the parts on ebay or something...

this place repairs 'em. don't remember your lcd size,
but says repair of 14" is like $75. sounds cheaper than buying new?

eBay is generally good when you need new (well, secondhand) screens and other laptop parts.

that site for repairs says they can't repair cracked screens...they repair stuff like back lights and such ...they will install a new screen though.
