    I'm about a buy a lenovo laptop off eBay and I had the seller send me the FRU # to the LCD screen. I looked it up on Lenovo's website but there is no record of this at all. Could somebody help me find the manufacturer? Thanks!

    FRU #: 42T0578 or 42T0579 (The seller send me these two, not sure if they're the same)

    Never mind, I think I found the answer to my question. I think its a LG screen 200 Nits. Can anyone verify or can anyone tell me if this screen is good or not? Thanks!

    I have the 42T0579, i'm pretty sure its an LG panel. Regardless, it is certainly better than the Samsung screen from what I have heard. I love this screen and have no problems with it. (I have WXGA+ CCFL)

    You can verify once you receive your computer.
    The manufacturer for LG is LP141WP2-TLB1.

    OR in the invoice:
    42X6321 SBB 14.1 WXGA+ TFT, W/ CAMERA
    44C1347 SBB 14.1"WXGA+LEDB/L BTCAMWWAN
