Misc:

Does anyone know if the M100 and M102 LCD panels are compatible with each other? My M102's display is dim, and if I try to adjust the contrast up too much, it flickers and goes blank. I'm wondering if Tony's top-half M100 would do as an LCD replacement.

nope -different. Probably your pot (the dial) on the mobo.
m100 and m102 have diff panels, cable, and conn.

Sounds like the pot on your display is worn out. Check out the Club 100 website at www.club100.org and see if Rick Hanson can help you out with a replacement. I'm pretty sure he carries this item, or knows who does.
