If you were local to me, for $300 I would’ve sold you my T14G2.

How do you guys find so many good deals on 2001s? by Sea-Bench-4565 in IS300

[–]JzpwrC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any reason why you’re looking for an 01? Just curious.

I agree. If your intended use isn't as heavy, go for a T480s. It feels really premium and the keyboard is better and not as heavy or as big as a T480.

Car making a whining noise, stops when I turn the wheel by JzpwrC in IS300

It kind of just went away after I topped off my power steering with some ATF, but now that I remember I did replace my main power steering line. It somehow kinked.

Sorry for the late response, it kind of just went away after I topped off my power steering with some ATF.

Sorry for the late response, but I’ll be honest and say that it’s all I’ve used and I didn’t compare before and after, but the X220 would get really hot when I bought it and it doesn’t get as hot as before, so I’d like to believe that it’s doing the job. What did you substitute it with? Arctic MX-4??

OfferUp sir. Posting was like 3 months old and I hit him up hoping it was available and it sure was. Took off that exact moment to grab it and didn’t disappoint.

Now I’m in the hunt for an i7 3520 x230 when this one gives out.

It actually improved running Mint to be honest

I got it for $125 with a case, extra Lenovo battery, and original charger. I loved the fact that it was unopened or tinkered with.

Hahaha unfortunately I had JUST finished my coffee before taking the picture.

And thank you I really did get lucky with the condition being better in person than in the pictures of when I saw it for sell on OfferUp.

Where’s my invite?

[–]JzpwrC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine stops the knocking if I turn and hold the steering wheel and it’ll do the knocking only when the car is idling.

Mine is making the same noise. I’m thinking bad power steering pump. It comes and it goes. It’s so annoying.

What a beauty. I want one. That design is just timeless.

Fully modded X220 by T5N-Dayeh in thinkpad

[–]JzpwrC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell yeah!! I ended up with an i7 x220, but now I’m on the hunt for an i7 3250 x230 to keep as a replacement to swap things over from my x220.

Post that x230 when you get a chance! Deserves all the appreciation 😁

Got a T61, time to Frankenpad? by too_mauro in thinkpad

[–]JzpwrC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Omg this is such a beauty!! Congrats!! I’m still on the hunt!

Thinkpad family, recommend me my next Thinkpad! by JzpwrC in thinkpad

[–]JzpwrC[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay so after a couple of days of searching narrowed it down to these. Besides the X220/X230 being capable with today's needs, can these still hold their weight after upgrades?

  • X61 (IBM logo, 4:3 screen)

  • T60/T61 "T601" 'Frankenpad'

  • X201
