    ive read other threads trying to find the wobbly screen issue, but all i read were the hinges being loose itself or no fix at all. or some screw tightening method that has nothing to do with the screen wobble itself

    the hinge itself on the T61 is a tank, but the screen attached to it is loose as all hell, and there is no screws on the side or anywhere to tighten it.... i really need a solution here because its so annoying :(

    If you dont get any solutions, you can call Lenovo and they should tighten it up for you. ;)

    I just checked mine and it moves a little too. Thought that doesn't bother me at all though

    Weird. I have a T61p and that doesn't happen to mine.

    First time I hear about this problem.
