How flat does the display on the T42 fold backward

#1 Post by padmania » Mon Jan 10, 2005 7:47 pm

How flat does the T42 display fold backward? Does it go "all the way" over, or stop a 30 degrees or so off horizontal? (I'm thinking how I'm going to use it with my big home monitor and desk layout)

Thanks!

It flattens all the way to horizontal.

Wow. I just flattened mine past horizontal a few degrees. I never thought it would go that far, and never had a reason to try. That's pretty crazy...
