@zsc OMG...
Almost crying here, that's a X1 Thinkpad on the second photo. Ugh, poor thing. 😢
@design_RG feels like a 💔 I cried for p long when this happened

@zsc Oh, it's your own device. Oh, man, sorry to hear about it.
Can it be repaired? Replacing the LCD panel, not cheap but maybe worth it.
I love Thinkpads, still have a collection of older ones I used over the years. Nothing so new as yours there, but great design and build.
@design_RG I found an LCD for $100 ordered, it didn't work and then the vendor refused to take it back. I went to another vendor who kept this for 2 weeks and then said no displays work
I'm gonna try at another place this week
@zsc Oh, man, sorry to hear that. 😞
Compounds your loss, all these tries and no luck, plus expenses. Replacing an LCD is not something I have done, and it has to be the right part, plus the cabling is so fragile.
Hope you do get it back! It's a nice machine. Good luck!
@zsc I am using a nice HP Elitebook, lovely machine, I don't carry it much so the hefty weight doesn't matter to me. Best laptop I have, takes zillion tabs open in browser, image editor, other things in complete stride.
I replaced the original HDD with an SSD, and that makes it nicer than most machines for sale today.
Love the quality, design. Aluminum body, milspec design, and not for the high price MBP goes for.
