I checked out the LCDs on Toshiba A135 series and Sony FE series, both 15.4 and gloss, and found them to be very close.
Sony FE series x-brite-eco LCD
Pro:
the highest in brightness
very high contrast
Sharp
Con:
noticeable light leakage from the bottom of the screen when color is dark
can not display faint grey lines near the bottom of the screen
( in Vista, open the document window, you would notice the vertical lines would disappear as they go toward the bottom of the screen)
Toshiba A135 series, true brite LCD
Pro:
very bright, noticeable better than the HP dv6000, but a bit less than Sony's
good contrast
Sharp
can display faint grey lines/colors better than the sony's
Con:
???
I actually prefer the Toshiba LCD because it can display faint colors in the lower part of the screen better than the Sony's. The super brightness on
Sony's does not mean to much to my usage model ( programming, casual gaming and DVD )
Any comment or suggestion?
BTW, I am about to order an A130, can anyone tell me if the LCD on A130 is as good as the one on A135?

I guess people on this thread care less on LCD quality. But
I am happy to find out and tell you that indeed I like the lCD on my A130 than those on EF models displayed in stores.
One good way to check is open the "documents" window from Vista
start menu.
You will notice, on the right pane, there are vertical lines separating different attributes for each file, such as filename, type, size and etc.
On EF and many other machines, these vertical lines faint away as they go toward the buttom half of the LCD screen. While A135 LCD
screen can still dispay these lines in the lower half of the Documents
window. Changing the LCD brightness has no effect on this character.
Which LCD is better? A130/A135 true brite or Sony FE x-brite-eco ?
