    Hello all,

    I have been searching for a softcase for my recently purchased X60. I have found a "second skin" neoprene case, however, my computer came with the larger capacity battery, thus the 12" case will almost certainly be too small. Would a 13" case - designed, e.g. for a 13" MacBook - be adequate or would it be too large? Does anyone have another recommendation for a softcase?

    Unrelated question: How loosely is the screen supposed to be inside the display frame? When I lightly push in on the outward facing or back side of the screen, I noticed a small gap at the bottom, i.e. where the screen is covered by the black plastic trim. This is the second time a have asked a build quality related question, but my 3 year old Vaio seems more sturdily build. I probably just need reassurance that the Thinkpad is tougher than it looks and feels, i.e. built to last.

    Thanks for your time,

    HSSA
