    What's wrong with the off-centered screen?

    I think all T61s and R61s have them. Not sure about other models.

    Honestly, it's not that noticeable. I have a T40 that's very slightly off-center and never really noticed.

    The T61 series are more noticeably off-centered compared to the T40/T41/T42/T43/T60 series.

    are you referring to the bezel?

    The T61's bezel is about a cm or so wider on the left side. I suppose some people might be bothered by it, but for me I don't notice it at all. When you're looking at the screen the bezel is out of focus. Who looks at the bezel anyway? There's nothing there to look at unless you have a web cam.

    The Fn key being to the left of the control key bothers me a million times more.

    Even that little red button in the middle of the keyboard bothers me more.

    Once you get used to it, it won't be a bother at all.

    The screen on my 15.4" T61 is slightly off-center and I have decided that it is OK.
