LCD Case for X61s the same as X60 or X61 Tablet?

#1 Post by leesiulung » Wed Jan 21, 2009 8:39 pm

I'm thinking of getting a skin for the top of the LCD out casing (a first for me) for my new X61s, but skinit.com doesn't list my model. Instead it has the X60 or the X61 (model 7762). The X61 has a model number that seems to match a tablet.

Is the X61s top case the same on X61 Tablet or X60?

For reference, here is a link to skinit.com with the selection page: http://www.skinit.com/devices/laptop/le ... p/thinkpad

Dimension-wise, the X60/X60s/X61/X61s should all be the same.

The Tablets are, of course, different - they are a bit wider and a lot deeper. Indeed the 7762 is a tablet, and the picture clearly shows a tablet as well.

The short answer is no. Here is the long answer: All 3 are different. The tablet is entirely different. The X61 and X61s have different sized fans making the area around the battery different. There are some batteries that only fit x61s. Some batteries fit x61 and x61s but need a spacer on x61s. Tablet batteries are entirely different.

We were talking about LCD cases though. Why should they be different between an X61 and an X61s?
