    Hey, like so many others I love my T61 but hate the screen. Questions:

    Is it possible to go and buy a new led baclit lcd panel from say lenovo or ebay and install it in the lid of my t61?

    Would it be possible to buy a spare screen for the t400 and then swop the entire lid?

    thanks, Mads

    Yes, there are a coupe of members here who went through screentek and were quite happy with the results. One member I can remember off hand is rblitz(sp?). This person actually got a glossy screen put on their T61.
