So I looked into the mod. I might give it a go. Putting my xps 13 on top of
my x230, the difference is night and day. I think id order a pre-cut bezel
as well so I could go for the 13.3" inch FHD screen.
This is the perfect laptop right here: https://i.imgur.com/GiasnKg.jpg (minus
libreboot, but coreboot+me cleaner is a close 2nd).
My only concerns are: is this gonna cause weird issues at all? (especially in
linux).
Ive read that battery life will suffer a bit, and the power button controls
brightness, which doesnt bother me, but im worried about coreboot and linux
compatibility. Should I be?
Like I mentioned before, I like to avoid problems that need weird solutions,
and im worried having this screen might introduce some weird issues.
I guess worst case scenario I could just upgrade to ips, but 768 is kind of a
bummer compared to 13.3" 1080p.
Where do you live btw? You mentioned your local community? I was consider
paying someone to do this mod if the price was reasonable. But I wouldnt
mind doing it myself I guess.
