Re: [WTB] X220/X230 Webcam Blank Sticker
You make your ancestors cry.
I would take a Norwegian cut sticker over a chinese one everyday of the week.
I'm sorry to hear this was the outcome.

Good luck, the 13.7 in screen and the 8mb video card that went with it are even harder to find than the caddy.

Re: WTB - ThinkPad A31/p with 15" IPS display
It's going to be tough man. I was on the last one posted by manmanman before he ghosted the site like a little [censored]. I really wanted one with the secondary DVD drive 10-key. You might get lucky on ebay, the last one that came through I saw while broke so I missed out on that one.

Re: W541 screen blinking, flickering also darker band
Hold on fella, a new screen might not fix this for you depending on what you have going on. This isn't a new problem for the W540 and W541 series - I believe there are some others this generation that are effected. I've had the flickering issues since the beginning and have noticed a few things arou...

Re: WTB - ThinkPad A31 with 15" IPS display
I think I have a spare A31p in my collection with the IPS panel, but it has a bad motherboard (they have a bit of a reputation for GPU problems). If I can find it, and if you want it, you can have it for the price of shipping. If you still end up digging that out, I might be able to provide a home...

Re: Stay on Windows 11 or switch to Linux?
You can regain basic control of Windows. This unfortunately is incorrect. Since Windows 8 especially, Microsoft has given themselves the ability to pick and choose what you have on your computer.

Not all of the holes fit if I remember correctly, I made a standoff plate and did use some adhesive if I remember correctly, mostly on the right side behind the screen.

I was out the door less than $200 shipped, you would be a little over that, but the 1440p screen in my t420 is amazing. I vote for the big boy upgrade.

Re: Restored T400 - any historical value?
Having a couple T400's and R400's they're both cool machines. I like to do them up with an OS or two on an older SSD, load those up with old games and give them to friends. If you have somebody in your life who is getting into computers it's a great gift idea.
