Unfortunately, buying a new laptop may be cheaper than getting one repaired.

I'm seeing new laptops with rebates on sale at $399. I bought my used one for $260, and I see Ebay auctions on used laptops going over $300 on laptops without dual-core processors, memory over 1GB, and all of the other features on new laptops.

Once the parts and labor go past $400, you should consider buying a new one.
