I have t42p, t43p, t60 and t61 running CentOS and Ubuntu.
#All of them has up time for more than 500 days.
#T42p been on since 2007.
#I am missing old IBM laptop, almost everything are serviceable.
I believe in "user-serviceable" of anything, Cars, Washing Machines and old IBM/Lenovo laptops.
- bd_at_rivenhill 12y agoI had to take my old T60 apart last summer to clean out all the fans and apply more heatsink compound. Runs smooth now, but had an annoying habit of crashing during heat waves before I did this.
- xkiwi 12y agoI use compressed air to clean the fans every 6 months, also applied new Arctic Silver 5 cpu paste. I have fans controlled not to run unless CPU or GPU over 52C. Looking for a replacement like Thinkpad is extreme hard.
