I am drawing a blank here about keyboards

#1 Post by wild_bill » Sat Nov 20, 2010 10:45 pm

Are the keyboards on a 15" 4:3 aspect T60 and a 15.4" wide screen T500 interchangable?

For some reason, the part of my brain that usually knows these answers is not working tonight :mrgreen:
IBM T60 | 15'' BOE·hydis UXGA IPS | T7200 Core2Duo | 4GB CL4 | 320GB Fujitsu 7200 | Echo Indigo studio sound | NMB kb | XP Pro | Linux Mint | Win7 x64

Yes they are.

I was sure I had seen this thread. To avoid starting a new thread for a simple quick question, I dare hijack it:

Are T4x keyboards compatible with the T60? I don't know if the plug actually fits, just checking to avoid damaging something in case the plug is the same but with a different pin configuration.

No. The number & position of the screws is different.
