14.1" UXGA - a possible mod on SXGA T60?

#1 Post by csioucs » Sun Jun 10, 2007 8:47 am

I was thinking, encouraged by pianowizard with the unbelievable Q X G A on his R50p, if a somewhat similar mod would be done (his alteration isn't really a mod, but an upgrade)...with a screen from ScreenTek or elsewhere? on a 14.1" T60.

What do you think?
current: working on FHD T420s, Asus Vivotab Note 8
Almost retired: X61T. Watching: X301 (wife's). Retired: T60p.
Former:T60, (X31), T30, 380E

you'd need a compatible planar card, the screen would need to physically fit within the dimensions of the case, and the hinges might need to be re-drilled to work with the new screen's bolt pattern.

the answer right now is 'maybe'.   14.1" UXGA screens can be found for under $200 so your best bet would be to find a vendor with a good return policy.

good luck!
