yea it's not likely that I'll be moving to a SXGA+ T40. I think I'll just stick with my T23. I don't think I can use XGA happily anymore heh.

hmmm doesn't seem like pressure marks. Pressure marks would be white blobs across the screen if I'm not mistaken. For me sharp pixels turn red. After fiddling around with the portion where I indicated, the spots disappear. I would be more inclined to believe that it'd be a connector problem...but I'...

T23 and magenta spots all over screen

Hey there, some of you might know that I've been wanting to sell my T23 in the forums. But these weird reddish dots keep showin up on the screen, so I can't sell it. I've replaced the SXGA+ cable (gah expensive!!!) and also the inverter. Only thing it could possibly be now is backlight I suspect. Bu...

How is the R52 build quality vs. T43?

Just wondering how the build quality of the R52 compares to say a T43 or T42. Probably looking to get an R52 if it's not crappy. Thanks for any advice!

I just got my T23 in the mail today and it was literally covered in dog/cat hair. It was sold as a laptop that stopped working. In any case I cleaned out the hair and now it does work. Everything seems fine, except it freezes randomly. It does get into windows and works ok for a while, but then free...
