So, I finally upgraded my TP750Cs to a TP760CD at Computer Exchange on Tottenham Court Road in London. This is a 120 MHz 24MB 1.3GB TFT 800x600 MWAVE system. Since it came w/ limited documentation (e.g. proof of purchase included but none of the manuals, cables, etc you get with new system), I am curious about a few things. I reinstalled Win95, and most of the Thinkpad 760CD stuff from the IBM Thinkpad support site. Questions: o What are the two tiny three pin miniature DIN like connectors on the left side of the unit? One has an icon that looks like a battery and the other one has an icon that looks like a screen. o What are the two miniature connectors above the docking port connector? o Where do you plug in a phone when using MWAVE modem? o Where is the joystick connector? o Does anyone have IBM part numbers for ordering any cables which might be necessary for routine use of the TP760CD? o I gather this system comes with integral MPEG 2 decoder. Can I play MPEG movies from an external 4X CDROM through my Adaptec Slim SCSI adaptor? o Where does one buy CD ROM MPEG movies like Casablanca? o To confirm -- video resolution is limited on LCD to 800x600 x 16 bits per pixel? o What is outboard monitor resolution? o How does one fit another disk drive, extra battery, etc into the floppy drive (ultra) bay? What part numbers are required as adaptors to use this bay? o Where can I buy caddies to hold my OEM HD drives? What thickness drive will the original IBM caddy hold? I have one IBM DPRA-21250 & one DCRA-22160 drive which I'd use if possible (17 mm height?). o For linux -- video is Trident TGUI 9320 chipset? Can linux speak to MWAVE audio chips? o I seem to be missing cs3kit.exp from the OEM disk images in WINDOWS\CABS. Is this important? o Has anyone managed to get an old IBM Home and Away 14.4 KBPS modem & Ethernet Network Adaptor to work in the TP760CD? o Has anyone used IBM VoiceType Dictation in TP760CD?
