Hi everyone,
I went to NTR today from 11am to 3pm. Sorted through more laptops and
installed DSL onto 4 more. Now we have a total of 12 that are ready to
go to a volunteer's home/office for testing. Here's a list of the ones
that need testing:
8 Compaqs. All of these use the 3 pin AC power cords, very easy to find.
2 Dells. Two of the power supplies are sitting right next to the laptops.
2 IBM Thinkpads. Need power supplies. I know we used to have them
but I can't find them now. One needs a hard drive caddie.
The next ones in the queue are as follows:
2 black Compaqs. Make into one good laptop.
2 black Compaqs. Make into one good laptop.
2 no names (Green?). Swap LCDs to make one good laptop.
7 Toshibas. Really old but use the 2 pin AC power cords and the hard
drives are easy to install.
3 newer Toshibas (~333MHz). Great laptops but have a variety of
issues. Might get two good ones out of these.
So, who's ready to take some for testing?
