FS: X61 w/ SXGA+ IPS conversion

#1 Post by Raceboy » Fri Mar 23, 2012 11:07 am

I performed an SXGA+ conversion with the help of the spare 12.1 SXGA+ panel I had but decided to stick with my good old X60 Tablet (SXGA+ of course).
This X61 is nice and has only few minor scuffs and light wear on the lid. Palmrest is excellent and keyboard (NMB) has very little shine.
This machine has (obviously) the SXGA+ BIOS that is modified by Middleton to unlock SATAII, disable whitelists and enable Dual-IDA.
LCD panel is flawless: bright and nice, no pressure marks, dead/stuck pixels, dust etc. It is downright excellent.
The battery is in GREEN and holds a full charge (=no wear). The battery lasts ~6 hours with the SXGA+ IPS LCD at max brightness and wireless on.

Specs:
Core 2 Duo T7100 1.8 GHz (with Dual-IDA, NHC allows to use 10x multiplier, = 2.0 GHz )
2 GB RAM
12.1" SXGA+ 1400x1050 LCD panel
Intel 6200-N wireless card (much cooler and better reception than original 4965 card)
100GB 7200 rpm HDD (very quiet and fast)
8cell original Lenovo 22++ battery with only 26 cycles and 0% wear!
65W AC adapter

I'm asking $380 + shipping for this very nice machine. Shipping is ~$30 to US and ~$20 to Europe.

I don't know about 2nd miniPCI-E slot as I have not taken the base apart, I just took the screen apart and modified the cable in situ.

There shouldn't be any reason why SXGA+ prevents installing WWAN antenna, theres still room for the cable and mounting the original antenna.
