Lenovo is right with using the same screws everywhere

X200, X201, X220 (including equivalent tablet models) and X300, X301 series specific matters only.

Lenovo is right with using the same screws everywhere

#1 Post by ssd_thinkpad » Sat Aug 13, 2011 9:08 am

After I opened the body of the x220 (not the display frame) I was surprised that lenovo only used two kind of screws: big black ones that are used on the bottom part of the outside body, and small grey ones used within the notebook. This is a great improvement over my T60 where there are all kind of screws used everywhere and this makes repairing the x220 much easier. Right done, lenovo!

I had the same thought when I disassembled my X220 tablet. It really is helpful! :D

It is not only an advantage for us though: They only have to supply two kinds of screws when manufacturing, and the workers make less mistakes that way.
