WTB: 15 inch QXGA screen made for R50
Posted: Mon Jun 21, 2010 4:02 pm
Hi!
I am new to the forums but am a huge fan of IBM ThinkPads, including fixing them up and making sure they find a new life (A21p -- 12-track music station; T42p -- home movie system). I recently bought a R60 for my wife to do some of her CAD work at home, and was wondering if anyone out there had a QXGA screen for sale -- you know, one that was made for the R50 but which can be programmed to work with the R60/T60/T61. It would be a fun upgrade to do.
I am also willing to swap + $$$ the SXGA+ screen that came with the R60. Anyone bored/crazy enough to downgrade and take some $$$? Or, does anyone have an extra QXGA scree for a project they haven't gotten around to?
I've seen the QXGA screens on eBay, but I just don't have the $$$ that they are asking for a new one. Used, a little scratched, even with a burned out lamp. Anything but $270 for a new one from Asia.
