iBook: A1133 Logic boards interchangeable even if different LCDs?

Mon, 04 Oct 2010 07:36:35 -0700

I understand that the A1133 12" iBooks use either Chimei or LG-Phillips LCDs, and that you can't replace one LCD with the other. Unless you swap their cables first. Am I right?

More importantly, are the logic boards identical on all A1133's, whichever LCD type they use? Thanks for any help, guys.

MacBook Pro 15" Core 2 Duo Models A1226 and A1260: Will the matte 1680x1050 display from unibody MBP fit in A1260?

Sun, 12 Aug 2012 07:50:30 -0700

I've got an '08 MBP (A1260) with a bum screen, the stock matte LED-backlit 1440x900 panel. I was thinking of replacing it with the matte LED-backlit 1680x1050 panel offered on the unibody MBP's.

It looks to me like it should work. Am I missing anything?
