Hello everyone,
I know this has been discussed before in several different ways but I'm looking at buying a 2nd hand X60T which has been a Customise to Order (6364-CTO).
I know the unit has a Multitouch screen but the vendor doesn't know if it's Multiview, would I be right in saying the X60T Multitouch/Multiview (Outdoor/Indoor) screen was the only available option? i.e. You couldn't get the Multitouch without the Outdoor/Indoor screen?
Can anyone confirm this? The parts breakdown on the lenovo website is super confusing.
Many Thanks.

Why don't you ask the vendor for the serial number of the machine and then you can do a parts lookup and find out for sure?

Good Idea!
I didn't think of that!
Thanks for your help!

Ah-ha, It's showing up as Part number 42T0359 - Some googling shows that its the SXGA Screen, I thought the SXGA resolution wasn't available on Multitouch? If this is the case it definately rules out Multiview Outdoor viewability? Would I be right?

Argh, Some sites list it as XGA and other SXGA, the lcd parts list doesn't have that particular FRU either. I'll never get to grips with why Lenovo managed to create so many different variations of hardware! Goodness knows how/if they keep track of it all!

Ok, So I think i've finally worked out that the Multitouch/Multiview was XGA only and basically if it's a "touch" screen it's also the Outdoor viewable screen.
