FS: ThinkPad FrankenPad T60 T60p T61 Core2Duo T9300 8GB 128GB SSD 15" UXGA IPS LED
ThinkPad FrankenPad T60 T60p T61 Core2Duo T9300 8GB 128GB SSD 15" UXGA IPS LED
This is a 14" T61 motherboard stuffed inside a 15" T60p shell, modified with the same Boe Hydis HV150UX2-100 UXGA IPS LED panel used in the cockpit of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner. This panel is bright and beautiful! The FRU has been scraped off the bottom of the T60p case, and the BIOS has been flashed with Middleton 2.29/1.08. No operating system is included.
Specs:
Laptop exterior: Lenovo ThinkPad T60p
Motherboard: Lenovo ThinkPad T61
BIOS: Middleton BIOS 2.29/1.08 (unlocks WiFi whitelist and SATA II)
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T9300 @ 2.50GHz
RAM: 8GB (new)
Hard Drive: Crucial P3-128 SATA 128GB
Optical: DVD-R/CD-RW
LCD: Boe Hydis HV150UX2-100 UXGA IPS LED (new)
Keyboard: NMB, P/NO. 39T0928, FRU 39T0958
WiFi: Intel PRO/Wireless 5100 AGN [Shiloh]
Aftermarket battery (new)
AC adapter
Condition:
Very good condition. Many parts are brand new. Keyboard and palm rest have some shiny spots. Lid and plastics look pretty good. Most of the parts in this computer were manufactured over fifteen years ago. Everything works as intended unless otherwise specified.
Defects:
The ThinkLight at the top of the LCD bezel no longer functions after installation of the (very expensive) custom-wired LED panel. I believe the ThinkLight's connector may have detached, but I never use the ThinkLight so opening up the machine again was not a priority for me. Since this LED panel has a custom-wired adapter, no guarantee the ThinkLight is fixable.
Price: $849 shipped anywhere in the U.S., or add exact shipping outside the U.S.
PM if interested.

People will want to know if that T61 mobo has Intel GPU or nVidia GPU.
If nVidia, what is the FRU of the motherboard and what production date is on the GPU-chip.

On this picture it is: 1021A2, meaning Year 2010 and Week 21.

Thanks. It’s Intel, not nVidia.
