Just before last Christmas, the Nvidia NVS 140m card in my T61 crashed, it just showed random colored squares.
I called customer service, and they sent me a box the next day and the laptop got fixed in about one week.
As for this, it was a good experience.
The the tragedy began.
I was worried that it might get crashed again, so I left to my wife to check her emails.
She only used it for about one hour a day.
One day in May, the machine never boot up.
I called the customer service again, so they sent me another box to return it for repair.
However, I got a phone just now, and a lady said they would charge ~$420 to replace the motherboard.
I was told that they only provide three month warranty for it.
Now it became clear that for the first repair, they replaced the mother board with a good video card.
However, the motherboard itself had a very bad quality.
So for this T61, I just used this laptop for a little more than two years and now I have to throw it into trash can.
