First try for the warrenty, you may get lucky.

But from the look of it, the screens absolutly fucked and needs to be replaced.
I'm looking around at the moment, what type of laptop is it? Perhaps one of the service centers could help you out, see if they've got a replacement or something.

Theres always the possibility, but did they have any option for insurance or anything to luggage???

For a temp fix if you ever needed it, just hook the laptop upto a desktop monitor.... if you're desperate.

all care but no responsibility unless you marked the luggage as fragile? kept your ticket stubs?
