Dimensions of the X60s with 8-cell battery

#1 Post by jamess » Wed Aug 09, 2006 10:59 am

I am buying a sleeve online and X60s/8c comes in between the two sizes offered by many, I would like to ask somebody to give me exact dimensions of the X60s with 8-cell battery attached.
I found so many different numbers on the web and would now prefer to get them "first-hand".

Thanks a lot!

I'd volunteer, however I'm traveling in Europe with my X60s and "slim" battery... :D

These are my measurements from earlier (when I was confirming a purchase size from SFBags):

9.25" deep
10.5" wide
1.125" high (at back, tapers to under 1" at front)
Plus: a 0.375" high, 8.5" wide, 1.5" deep bump under the machine
at the back

These numbers are rounded to the nearest .05" in general. It's important to note that, as mentioned above, the 8-cell only increases the thickness by .375" in a 8.5"x1.5" area on the bottom. Therefore, you don't necessarily want a sleeve that's the full 1.125+.375=1.5" wide since this only happens in a relatively limited location.

Go to sfbags.com and get a sleeve from them.

Said to be the highest quality and best fitting sleeve on the market.

Mine arrived today, i havent looked at it but the shipping was speedy. Ground shipping, shipped same day, got to me in 2 days.
I refuse to tip toe through life, only to arrive safely at my death
