I repaired my old Dell power button before...it was stuck because the pad behind was worn out. Took me half a day to tear it apart, and half an hour to test the new DIY part.

Pretty sure you can do the repair yourself. It's like taking a trim piece off of your car. Use plastic on plastic parts to pull them apart.

actually I use a projector for my main viewing station or whatever. but sometimes I just need to do something quick, don't wanna turn the projector on and off and wait for that 1 min warm up etc. the monitor is a mirror of the projector but in my room, instead of living room.
