| 520c & 5300cs obtained | |
| Posted by: miniMOJOman on 2015-02-27 10:51:56 just snagged these two beauts. Pics attached. Both working good. The 520c power jack is loose I might open her and re solder it. Other than that no problems except these horrible screens 🙂   | |
| Posted by: TheWhiteFalcon on 2015-02-27 10:57:49 I like the Blackbird books. Unique design. I didn't think the screen on the 520c is that bad, but maybe I just have low standards on old PB's. | |
| Posted by: miniMOJOman on 2015-02-27 11:05:27 yeah the screens are the same on both models, what is it, passive display?? Â You cant do any motion viewing barely, the screen blurs everything together. Â The 520c has the game Maelstrom on it, but I have no idea how anyone could have played it, its practically impossible to see anything when its moving on the screen haha | |
| Posted by: unity on 2015-02-27 11:11:04 Ya, passive. My 1400cs is passive. They did not seem as bad back in the day. But the pixel shudder drives me nuts. | |
| Posted by: TheWhiteFalcon on 2015-02-27 11:18:36 Maybe I'd need to use mine more seriously. I know the somewhat fuzziness of the Clamshell display is part of what made me move away from using it for journal work. | |
