in a recent thread, someone mentioned that their 15" SXGA+ flexview screen had a small amount of "ghosting" when watching movies.
i intend to order a T60 or T60p soon, mostly for "personal productivity," and writing interactive 3D software, but i would like to watch the occasional movie. photo editing would be nice, but is not necessary, since my photo editing can be done on a nice desktop system.
i've always thought i'd get a flexview, but i'm having a moment of hesitation, now that i've heard about the "ghosting."
how bad is the ghosting? is it bad enough that movies would look better on a non-flexview screen?

You're probably referring to me? I'll say this, they look better than they did on my last laptop. It's really very very minor. It won't be an issue, I was just trying to be extra thorough in my comments.
