    Laptop replacement screen oem but not same manufacturer

    chosing between 6 "budget" laptops for video editing

    Czech charity working with a budget of around around 20 000 CZK (800 EUR). We work with project funding, so we cannot go higher or much lower either (and the good laptops are all at least 200 € more expensive). We also have to buy in the Czech Republic. We have a very good desktop for video...
