F**KED my work laptop... HELP!

[fizzy_drink]

I've got a Toshiba Satellite Pro M30 works laptop.

It's taken a fall, and screen/chassis are mashed. All other components are ok.

Any chance of getting a new chassis/screen for it? If so, where from?

Oms.

just tell work...they will be insured. will be a costly job for you to do it

Idd, fair chance it will be a leased machine Oms, so they should be able to just have it sorted via their leasing contract. Some turd at our place decided to start carrying around his laptop in a Tesco bag, when the bag broke the screen smashed and we had a quote from Dell for £680 (the laptop it probably worth £350 in real money). Laptop parts are hideously expensive!

Eitherway I wouldn't try and sort it yourself.

Work will charge me for the laptop, at full bum fisting price...

Claim on your house insurance?

You sure its not been stollen from your car?

Or from your front lawn whilst you were enjoying the weather and went inside for a moment to get a beer...

replacement screen on an HP laptop is around £380 inc labour to fit it.

would have thought it would be similar with toshiba.

Or from your front lawn whilst you were enjoying the weather and went inside for a moment to get a beer...

yeah that would go down well.

Is it not still under warranty?

I suppose it's covered under my personal posessions insurance... I'll give them a ring.
