I just got home and pressed a key to wake up my laptop's monitor, and was greeted with the plaid screen of death—"ah, that was to be expected," I thought. Figuring it couldn't hurt and might help, I banged it a couple times (to no effect), and then dropped the computer from a height of about two inches. It was instantly perfect.
Still gonna buy a new one next week, though.
