Make more computers that work outside! This is honestly great!

(For context this is a ThinkPad X230 with a PixelQi display modded in)

@LinuxLounge Wow, that’s a fascinating mod. Tell us more about it!

How did you mod the device? Which resolution does the display have? What about refresh rate?

@thinkpadmuseum Believe it or not this display is actually compatible with the ThinkPad out of the box. However, because the display is too small for the display housing and the X230's display cable is too short a 3D printed housing and display cable extension is required. I'm not super happy with how "rough" mine is so I'd love to try and improve it some time.

@thinkpadmuseum You can find the guide I used here:
