The plastic quality of most of the chassis is quite good for such an old laptop and significantly better than later Fujitsu-Siemens models. Internal component access is also quite good, as the hardrive has a caddy that can be opened externally, as well as easy access to the floppy drive, battery and RAM. The LCD screen has a fluorescent backlight that is potentially difficult to replace as screens used by IBM on similar laptops can be quite cumbersome to disassemble (the IBM Thinkpad 755, IBM 370C series). | The plastic quality of most of the chassis is quite good for such an old laptop and significantly better than later Fujitsu-Siemens models.

The LCD screen has a fluorescent backlight that is potentially difficult to replace as screens used by IBM on similar laptops can be quite cumbersome to disassemble (the IBM Thinkpad 755, IBM 370C series). Unfortunately, the floppy drive is highly unreliable, as the belt driven platter system requires belt replacement and it is prone to fail. | ||
