For a HP Pavilion dv6000, but I believe that almost all 15.4" are interchangeable?

You'll need part numberLTN154X3-L01
to fit your model, some of the newer Acer, Samsung and HP models have them

However the Sony and Toshiba 15.4s are different, best to try Ebay I think, or find someone on Trademe breaking one apart

Thanks for the advice, but in my searching I now have a new question: Can you tell me the difference between a glossy and matte screen?

Cheers

Sure, glossy means it reflects, matte means it doesn't reflect

some LEDs/Plasma have a refective surface, whereas almost all LCDs have a matte screen

It won't matter if you don't take it outside too much, if you do, the matte screen will be better in sunlight

And all are not created equal. The plugs are quite different from different manufacturers (i have 4 useless ones in my ex's garage and still cant find one that fits my compaq)
