My PB100 seems to have suffered some major screen damage over the past few years. When I got the pb in 2019, it was completely fine. Then last year I noticed a small discolored spot. And this year it has basically taken over most of the screen. I assume it's the typical vinegar syndrome and the display is shot. It's a shame, as both the display and the logic board were previously recapped.
Any hope in fixing/restoring this? I'm also curious how it started happening from a seemingly perfect screen and how the pace of degradation appears to have pretty rapidly hastened in just over a year. Are there recommended storage practices for these old laptops to lower the probability of this from happening, or will all inevitably be affected over time?
