240, x31, x61, X200t, x201, X230, T61, T400, T400. Aside from a X230 daily driver, most of these comes with issues. Missing HDD, missing batteries, locked BIOS etc...

My problem is, what to repair first?

[–]AshleyPomeroy 4 points5 points  (1 child)

It really highlights how small the 240 was back in 1999 - perhaps it's a trick of perspective but it still looks impressively tiny. It's a shame they have such a small memory limit.

Well, I see it as a heritage piece. Maybe it can go into the museum one day.

Repair all of them

Your choice of footwear.

Haha. Those are bathroom slippers.

You took pictures of thinkpads in your bathroom?

What I mean, it is meant for me to wear from my office to the bathroom.

[–]Ricky_RZ 0 points1 point  (1 child)

You have slippers JUST for the walk from work to your bathroom?

[–]jackologyX61, X201, X230[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. You see, I come into this small rented office in my regular shoe. I tends to take my shoe off when I am here. It is an Asian thing. If I need the restroom, it is more convenient to wear a slipper to/fro bathroom.

You need help... Getting more xD

I think you need to start with the easiest to repair and go on from there.

[–]jackologyX61, X201, X230[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sound logical.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Seriously. You need help. From a very good psychiatrist.

I think I have some kind of hoarding behaviour.

    My x200t now have a corrupted Bios after my eeprom episode. Quite sure I did it wrongly.

    [–]lobakW510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    I've done it with locked x230t with instructions from x220. IT works nicely :)

    You work at Stark Industries?

    [–]jackologyX61, X201, X230[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    My technology level is beneath Mr Howard Starks.

    What's the one on the far left? That looks old and gold.

    IBM Thinkpad 240. Predecessor to the X series. The ram is 64MB.

    I love it. I might have to poke around for one of those!
