Blast from the past <BIG IMAGES>
Posted: Sun Oct 26, 2014 9:01 pm
So I decided to clean out my closet to make some more space and ran into some old friends, and made a new one.
Here's a whole bunch of laptops, probably going to rebuild/sell them, but wait, whats that over there?
Is that what I think it is?
Its a Thinkpad!
An empty shell of a R40-2897 15"
The R40 emblem
Somewhere along the way the screen got cracked. Darn.
Most of the case is in fair condition, free of deep scratches and dents.
Fairly thick (and durable)
Original label is hardly legible. Dated August 2006
The bottom still has all of the covers. Battery is missing.
15" 4:3 screen compared to a 15" 16:9 screen (Toshiba C655)
But that's not all!
The box for my E425-1198. I paid some $800 for this thing a couple of years ago.
The other side.
Specifications, same side.
AMD Label on side.
Box vacated by only a plastic bag(far top)
We're not done yet.
Ran into this.
Well, isn't this just like old times.
I don't have a studio, but I tried to recreate a stock photo anyways.
Another badly angled shot.
Questionably innovative thinklight feature...
It has a replacement keyboard on it, function keys that don't exist. Burn damage on the Alt Key.
Burn damage on Q key. Surprising quality improvement over stock lenovo keyboard. Very little key wear and firm keystrokes that don't wobble.
E420 Emblem
Lenovo emblem, opposite side
Decent webcam, with absolute **** **** microphone
Backside, with ethernet, battery, and cpu exhaust
Left side, nice amount of ports. Almost didn't buy it because of the combo audio port.
Also not that thin.(Right side)
Bottom side (bad quality)
No clue who these guys are. Bought (or stolen) from a university? (engraved in top lid)

Welp, that's it for now. I hope you enjoyed this collection of relatively horrible pics.
