Re: Upgrading an old IBM ThinkPad for use in Car
Mmmm....not so sure. Port Replicator?
Expansion options Option part number (P/N) Field replacement unit (FRU) P/N Important information
Enhanced Port Replicator 11J8997 (withdrawn) 11J9000 2 PCMCIA slots (is not compatible with the 380Z).
TP 560 Port Replcator 46H4209 (withdrawn) 46H4107 No PCMCIA slots.
Port Replicator with Advanced EtherJet 05K4872 (withdrawn) Port Rep. 05K6161
Cover unit 05K4875 For use with the TP 380Z only.
Port Replicator 84G1316 (withdrawn) Port Rep. 84g1320
Cover unit 84g1321 Not for use with TP 380Z.
It looks like I was wrong about the PCMCIA I.
This comes with 2x PCMCIA II slots
The port replicator comes with PCMCIA II/III compatable!
And a USB-a port, which seems to be upgradable to USB2 with a driver update?
This may well be possible after all with this old computer.
Now, about suspension?
