X61 (and I think one X61s) for cost of shipping

I prefer the X61 because of the taller screen aspect because I write documents for a living.

But all my X61 (I think I have 4 or 5) eventually died due to FAN ERROR.

I believe I also have a few docks as well.

So, these are dead computers.

I would like to distribute them to any of you who will pay the cost of shipping.

So send me a PM if you are interested.

What have you tried doing to troubleshoot this issue. Seems pretty hard if you giving up on 4-5 x61.

RealBlackStuff from discord mentioned this post to me and I'm interested. I can't send you a pm though because my account is new.

And I don't know you from Adam either.

On most Thinkpads, a Fan Error will cause the BIOS to shut down the laptop as a safety measure.
E350 probably doesn't want to spend a dime on these old machines, so he'd rather send them to anyone who wants them.

Some of us are on a thinkpad discord server and kfzhu told emperia48 to mention you to get PM permissions and they misunderstood what he meant, that's all.

Sorry it was my fault for not explaining this thoroughly enough on Discord. I brought this post to the ThinkPad discord server's attention because I know someone was desperately in need of X61 (and I sold my last X61s just 3 days prior), wanted that member who's apparently new to ThinkPad forum to reach out to you to grant permission for PM, but must've misunderstood and thought I am RBS instead :lol:

I am very interested in an x61 for parts if you still have any available, just can't PM cause I'm a new user :thumbs-UP:
