Got it! T42 2378FVU

#1 Post by warreng24 » Mon Dec 06, 2004 2:22 pm

Ordered Dec 2
Shipped from HK Dec 3
Arrived Tucson, AZ Dec 6

Apparantly I got a free 2nd day UPS Express.

First of all, I would like to thank everyone here at the forums for helping me with my questions. I hope in the future I will be able to help answers other's questions.

Secondly, I just want to say that although I loved me Gateway Solo 1450 for the last 2 years, I really should have bought a ThinkPad instead. I'm going to miss the Gateway though (see it on eBay soon).

Third, I am absolutely amazed at the weight, size, and sturdy-ness of the ThinkPad. Absolutely amazing. Absolutely no chasis flex whatsoever. This just might be the last laptop I ever own.

Looks like this one is going to be sent back.

Three bad pixels (turned off) right in a row!

:(

Alright, I'm an overly excited idiot.

I just scrolled down, those "bad pixels" were dots for the letter "i" on the line below.

:oops:

Eh... That's too bad... :cry:

I was all ready to read a happy thread, and then the inevitable bad pixle report...

I have a 2378-FVU and it's awesome.

Though it is my 3rd one, as the other two were sent back. I guess 3rd times a charm.

Good luck.
