>I don't know yet;-). But wat is for shure is that ibm offers you the complete hardware manual on the net and also a list of every spare piece of your machine which is really cool if you want to replace something yourself.  

Yeah, I noticed they have really good manuals.
The people through which I wanted to buy the T40p said that
not all spare pieces would be on stock though, especially
not for the more 'rare and expensive' models like the T40p.
(they would have to be built on order ?)
It should be easier to get spares for R or X models.

Can anyone confirm or deny this ?

How standard are IBMs spare parts ?

Must have been a really special fuse ;))
