365 and 755 LCD Assembly Swap?

#1 Post by Thinkpad4by3 » Sun Jun 11, 2017 3:59 pm

Could you take a LCD Top from a 755 and put it on a 365. Say you had a 365ED and put a 755C LCD assembly because DSTN is awful.
The only acceptable use for a MacBook is to shop for a Thinkpad.

A lot of the mid 90s models had similar parts but were just different enough to make parts swaps difficult. I know the 750s and 360s used the same parts but with different fittings. The 365 used the same shell as the 360 but with modifications. If you want to modernize a 360 or 750/755, your best bet is to use modules from a 760 which are backwards compatible and in a more compact form. The exception in battery. The 760 batteries work in Pentium model 755CDs and CXs.
