Thinkpads Forum

Hey everyone, this is my first post, and I couldn't really find much on the topic I'm posting about... so bear with me if it's a repeat:

I am buying a T60p for college soon (I have an EPP, otherwise I would buy a dell or something else with good deals, but I digress) and have been looking at the 14" vs. the 15".

I've noticed that the only primary difference is screen types, and that the 15" has IPS.

Could you tell me your opinion of the T60p 14" screen vs. the T60p 15" screen? Is it worth the extra hundred-or-so dollars to spring for the 15" for the wide-viewing angle? Or is the 14" sufficient?

Any other input regarding screen size is appreciated (though weight in my opinion is negligible, if I remember correctly it's less than a pound of weight difference).

Thanks!

This has been brought up numerous times on this forum, please search around. But the question you really ought to be asking is NOT whether the 15" IPS is more "worth it," it clearly is. It is gorgeous, and much more visually pleasing than the 14".

The question you have to ask yourself is are you willing to live with the additional bulk and weight of the 15" computer.
