TFTs in 700 and 720 [was: Re: New to list; need LCD for 701C]



Hi Randall,
You may be right that the 700C and 720C did not use the same TFT screen,
but I am fairly sure that at least the 720C used a TFT.  In a review of
the 720C in PC Magazine in August 1993, the reviewer almost raves about
the quality of the 10.4" TFT in the 720C.  I don't have the same kind of
authority for believing the 700C used TFT technology, but I have seen a
lot of classified ads from sellers who believed it does.
Is there anyone on this list who knows who made the TFT for this older
TP?  And may be willing to part with one (if it turns out to be a
match)?
