Re: FS:x62 / X63 (interest check)

Update: The X62's are sold. I have one more SXGA 1050x1400 panel that is currently in my X61s. And I'm selling some stock X61s's for cheap on ebay. If anyone really needs the SXGA screen, I'd be willing to sell the whole screen & lid. (It's successfully installed in the lid of the X61s, so it would ...

Re: FS:x62 / X63 (interest check)

Update: Thanks for all the interest. For the last X62, I went ahead and installed a new keyboard and palm rest and decided to list it at ebay. Full pics and details are there.

Re: FS:x62 / X63 (interest check)

Let me know if there's more interest. In addition to the X61s with 1050x1400 (#3 above), I've got one more X62 that I'm considering selling while I'm clearing all this stuff out. It would just take some time for me to wipe the drives etc. It's got a couple of lines in the screen (very usable), but i...

Holy cow

Holy Cow, I just found all these 1050x1400 screens. I was apparently preparing for supply chain difficulties.

Re: FS:x62 / X63 (interest check)

Thanks folks. As an update, the cracked screen one was sold to a forum member last Tuesday ($300). I still have the new one (#1). I'm really not sure what's the right pricing. If you guys want to message me ( texnyc @ gmail .com ), I'll be thinking about it, and try to post a number this week. Thank...

Re: FS:x62 / X63 (interest check)

Pics of x62 (#1) The pics don't really do the special edition cover justice. If you've seen these, it's pretty much matte black from a distance (or in a business conference room), but at the right angle in the light, it's full of subtle stars (like on "2010"). https://i.ibb.co/PGP2hXT/20230730-17134...

Apologies for the delay responding to a few PM's. I didn't realize I wasn't getting push notifications for them. Will update with specs and pictures in the next day or two. Again, sorry for being tardy.

Re: [WTB]* Thinkpad X330, X62/X63, X2100

I've got some of these. Let me know if you're still interested and I'll check the specs. One is my daily driver, but I have an extra one or two I had bought "just in case" and they are in unused condition.

FS:x62 / X63 (interest check)

I've been so happy with my X62 that I purchased a backup or two of them in case we lose track of Jacky. I'm using the machines less these days, so before deciding to sell vs hang onto these machines, I thought I'd check interest level. Let me know if you'd be interested in purchasing an X62 / X63 wi...

Re: Is Jacky responding to anyone else?

Thank you. I may PM to compare Western Union payment details. I feel like what I had was really vague-- just a pretty common first and last name-- but it's been my only experience sending $ that way.

From the little I know about WeChat, I'll try to hold off for now.

Hey guys, I've been trying to send money to Jacky for literally 3 years. (this is for an LED kit for my 'extra' X62, so it hasn't been a rush). Unfortunately, after 3 or 4 separate trips to his local Western Union office to try to collect my payment and a dozen emails about (the Western union tracki...

USB 3.0 on X62

Hey guys, When I got my X62, I was told it has USB 3.0, and I see it in device manager, but in each of the three USB ports, the OS tells me the device could perform faster "if you connect it to a super speed usb 3 port". More importantly, I can't remember transfer rates being more than about 25MB/s....

Thanks for the replies. I'm going to play around with the yoga I had to buy this coming weekend. Depending on how much I hate the silly new keyboard and 2.5 inches in greater width, I'll check back in here next week with a price to move this thing.

Re: X61s Frankenpad for sale SXGA 1050x1400 - but with screen color problem

Good suggestions fatpolomanjr and brchan. To answer your questions, the issue started while running WinXP and then persisted through me cloning a Windows 10 image from my other X61s onto the drive. I then swapped into the machine a different working WinXP hard drive, and the issue persisted (and swa...

Re: X61s Frankenpad for sale SXGA 1050x1400 - but with screen color problem

Someone politely reminded me that a price should accompany posts. I was really hoping to test the market / interest level, and didn't want to turn anyone off. Maybe $300 as an ask? I spent $200 last year on the screen.
