365ED Display Swap or CD-ROM swap???

#1 Post by Thinkpad4by3 » Wed Mar 29, 2017 1:58 pm

I saw that on Thinkwiki, the 365E came with a TFT or DSTN display but the 365ED came with only a DSTN display. Would it be possible to swap the TFT display from the 365E/701/700/755 onto a 365ED or are the connectors different? 755CD on the cheap??? :) Is it possible to put a CD-ROM drive in a 365E?
The only acceptable use for a MacBook is to shop for a Thinkpad.

It's not exactly the same but i swapped a DSTN display from my 310ED with a TFT display from a 310D without any problem.

So i guess at least it could be possible from a 365E. Check the hardware maintenance manual to be sure.
