Wanted: R&R discs set for T60

#1 Post by lifrancis » Sun Sep 20, 2009 11:36 am

I need the disc set to bring my T60 back to original condition so I can sell it to a friend. Nice machine, but the screen resolution (1400x1050) is too much for an old man.

Why not just install an XGA LCD?

Did your T60 come with XP or Vista?

ETA: I suppose I could have read your machine details first to see the XP/Ubuntu note.

My son has convinced me that I should keep up with progress and keep the T60. I found that by setting the windows font size from 96 dpi to 106 dpi (110%), I can see the desktop. And, by setting Opera (my default browser) to zoom to 120%, I can surf the web again. Now, I have to spend next couple of days re-setup my T60 back to the way I operate.
