Custom ORANGE T40 lid anyone?!

[JHEM]

Actually, both my t-notes have the Endurimer cover. I wanted to switch my daily driver to leather, but it turns out that none of the web-sites that advertise having the leather replacement covers actually have them

I've had no luck finding the leather cover for my TN either, especially as it's a left handed model.

I was able to grab a few of the leather "folio" covers however, almost as good and they also fit the A3X, T2X, T3X and T4X series machines.

I snagged one of those on eBay a while back. Someone seems to have a large supply of new ones, and he's slowly selling them off there. The problem is they're too nice - I don't carry mine because it makes me look pretty scruffy in comparison!

Speaking of the t-note, it ground a meeting at the office to a halt last week, as a lot of new people in the group hadn't seen one before. I had to do a 10-minute presentation on the thing before we could get back to work. It really is too bad these never caught on...I'd love one with built-in USB 2.0.

James,

I haven't very good luck tracking down one of these covers so far. Does this guy on ebay have them on a consistent basis, or is it pretty much Hit & Miss?

Thinkpad, look for the post in one of the pictures forums here I don't have time right now but there is actually a Piano top ibm thinkpad that looks very cool.

Thanks, I knew I saw that somewhere. The piano top looks much better.

Apparently he has a stockpile of them and is doling them out slowly in order to keep the market price firm.

I like it! being that my school colors are orange and blue... I would love that lid!

[Toine]

Make me an offer I can't refuse!

Although I am not very fond of the orange/black combination myself,
maybe this orange sleeve would make the picture complete. For you at least

[tfflivemb2]

That orange sleeve would be a nice touch.

Actually, they were designed for Apple notebooks. I have 2 B/W sleeves of this type.
One has been designed for Apple iBook 14", a perfect fit for my 14" T40; the other one is a PowerBook 12" model, I use that one for my X30!

I recommend these be-ez sleeves to everyone, great quality, perfect fit and nice design! And on top of that, with 25€-30€ a piece, not too expensive either.

Here is it, all orange and beautifull

Considering that the original ThinkPad design is said to have been inspired by the look of lacquered Japanese lunch boxes (bento), I have to say you're on to something here.

Note sure I like the clockwork orange look, my droogy, but still. Innnnteresting.

That orange looks too light. Mine is darker.
And it doesn't look like a lunch box
