I have a FZ-G1 (Mk4) Upgraded with 1tb sata ssd, killer AX1675x, ikey rugged backlit keyboard, and an EM7455 using ATT. I also have an MK1 that works. That one has a 128gb ssd and 8gigs of ram with an ethernet module.

Is this a custom mod? I couldn't find any pictures of it in the dark. I want to know more, this sounds super cool. Would love to see a picture!

Here's a picture of the LED's, they are red, one in each corner at top of screen. The brightness is controlled by holding down Fn key and the up/down arrows. This allows the keyboard to be lit up from above (so to speak) Model # is:

Thats super cool! And it is YOUR fault I went to the darkside.... When I went looking for pictures of that, I found the Getac B300. And ended up with one as you can see lol.

I have a CF-28 I built a few years back. It’s running Windows XP. I don’t use it very much but it was a fun build. I have a CF-30 that I used in my field work. have 3 CF-53’s (a MK2 and 2 MK5’s). My son is using the MK2 for college, my other son has a MK5 and I have the other MK5. A couple weeks ago I picked up a CF-31 MK5 and that will be my new field unit.

my oldest is a cf19mk3 from 2008. has been used till january 2023, 15 years ... then replaced with a t420 (for half a year, feels cheaply made) and then with a cf54mk2

I still have 2 FZG1 MK1's for win7 and I just picked up a F110 G3 that I put Mint on.

Hey, y'all!

I may have a Toughbook problem...

My current models sitting on the side table getting played with are a CF-20 and a CF-33. The CF-20 is essentially perfect and complete, just a CF-20 lol. The CF-33 is the tablet without the keyboard that I just picked up and likely has a bad touchscreen.

I have a MK5 CF-19 under the side table, it is complete and working. Gets used for tuning. It is one of the ones with the camera module, so its limited to 8 GB memory unfortunately, I don't really have any reason to keep it, other than it has a working legit W7 on it... I have another CF-19 MK6 (I believe) sitting on my workbench. It is a friends though.

I also have two CF-M34 under the coffee table. They both work, but the complete one I believe lost its PATA HD. It could be the motherboard though... I have the parts to swap the drive out and put in an SD card, the goal being a raspberry pi machine.

My CF-31 is on my back desk. I think Windows 7 broke on it, and my attempts to Hackintosh it fell short.

I still have that Getac B300 above, unfortunately its battery, or the chargeing circuit, took a poo. I really like it but am hesitant to spend good money on a battery, to find out it is the charging circuit. I may try jump-starting the battery.

This isn't including whatever parts laptops I might still have....
