SXGA+ X61 with Penryn CPU
Posted: Mon Dec 07, 2015 6:51 pm
My workplace is having some incredible deals on Lenovo stuff so I'm thinking about an X250. For that reason my trusty X61 is available.
The good
-1400x1050 IPS LCD installed (Boe-Hydis HV121P01)
-One of a kind 60Hz EDID configuration, instead of the normal 50Hz setup
-4GB RAM
-T8300 CPU, a nice 2.4GHz later Penryn model
-Intel 6205 Wi-Fi installed
-Middleton BIOS
-128GB SSD, using SATA-II
-Keyboard is in good shape, NMB model
-Original Lenovo AC Adapter is included
The bad
-The ThinkLight is broken because I accidentally cut it when adapting the LCD to work with the SXGA+ LCD
-The battery is at ~80% capacity and is third party
The ugly
-The screw covers on the lid are missing so the screws are visible. These can be replaced easily, but it does not bother me.
Here are pictures. If you have a 56k modem, or are browsing the forum via a potato, do not open them. They are roughly 60KiB each.

Price: Asking $350 starting, open to negotiations. Willing to reduce price through removal of SSD.
