Not bad


Is it Intel, ATI og Nvidia graphics? If it's Nvidia, it'll fail at some point, except for if it's after August 2008.

What resolution is the screen? And how much did you pay, if I may ask?

Intel Graphics at 1280*800, I don't mind the GPU, since I won't use the T61 for gaming anyways. For gaming I got my desktop here =P Paid ~160€ for the Notebook + a bag for it (Notebook is in superb condition, only a few really small scratches on the backside of the display, nothing else. The "scratches" are just normal usage-markers

That's nice. Intel graphics are always preferred on especially the older T40 and T60-series laptops, as the ATI and Nvidia ones generally has got a high rate of failure.
It's sad about the screen though. 1440x900 definitely would've been a plus!

The price is pretty good, especially if it's in a good condition. It should last for many years

I've got a T61 too. It's got the Nvidia NVS140M though, so there's artifacts on the screen. The specs are good though. 14'' 1440x900, 3GB ram, T7300.

It'll go from looking like this:

Oh, that is bad indeed ... doesn't the oven-trick work there?

The oven trick will do the job, but it's only temporary. It may last days, weeks, months, but it'll never fix it completely. :/
Only reason is to get a motherboard fom 08/08 or newer. They are rare though, expensive too.
