Does T61 have weight-reducing module?

if optical drive and battery removed for reduced weight? have any modules to fill in the holes to prevent dust?
Such things are very popular in china. is it the same in us?

 

I think I saw somewhere they were discontinued though you could probably get one on the internet.

 

what are these called officially?

 

I donnt know. I just translate it directly from Chinese.

 

they're called travel bezels, and they were available for T40-series not t60. So they're discountinued now (along with the t43). Some ppl find them on the internet and have put them in the T60 tho the shape is wrong and it fits but not exactly, also it's curved so it looks kinda kooky in your T60.

 

lol

12 years ago the internet and forums and usenet used to be full of serious ppl, because it cost $10,000+ to buy a computer to get on the net.

Now it costs $300 and every kid is online. Sigh.

 

what you mean!

 

It means you are a non-serious kid because you translate stuff from Chinese.

 

I am so confused.......

 

Universalid,

They're just kidding you (and jealous they don't understand Chinese.)

Actually, the 13N5108 travel bezel is listed in the T60/p HMM.

The fit might be off, but it's the same part number listed for other T series models, and it's still in the HMM. It is discontinued though.

 

and I still need one...

 

Is today "Bring Back Old Threads" Day?

 

Is it? I thought it was "Don't be an ass and repost" day.

 

It's both, but you didn't need to tell us you still needed one in the first place. It's been established that the travel bezel has been discontinued.

This was a recent thread too.

 

Well, I wanted to put it out there in case anyone knew of a source. Also, and rather smartly I might add, I did a search for 13N5108 which came up with this and an older thread. Unfortunately no one in the other T61 p thread you linked to thought enough to include that or else I would have bumped that.

 

Hahahaha.....I never search serial numbers. Way too specific to come up in casual thread conversation. And ironically, we keep bumping this thread up with our replies.

 

Well, there are soooo many different bezels out there I thought it prudent to search the part number rather than the general description and come up with the wrong thread.

Try some American Elmer's glue. =)

Forget the bezel, you shouldn't be using a computer anywhere near dust anyway.

 

The X61s I reviewed came with a travel bezel. The X and T use the same bay. Perhaps you could use the one for the X.

 

If that's an Ultrabay Slim TP (think so) then probably.

Clearly it was.

I just hope I was quick enough. If not, then I'm really SOL.
