    I've put a gobi2000 card in mine, and I can use mobile data with a sim. Sim goes in battery compartment. Put an ssd and 8gb ram which speeds it up a lot. In theory its also a GPS card, although I'm not sure I've got it working on windows 10. It definately works with GPS on windows 7. The drivers are now on the Lenovo EOL (end of life) website. You need to install the intel turbo driver, to get the best cpu performance. However I found for sata drivers, the microsoft default was faster than the Intel driver. Also put usb 3 express card in.
    You can also put in an internal webcam which just plugs in once the bezel is off if it doesn't come with one. I'm going to try to upgrade the processor to an i7 640m for the hell of it, which I believe is the fastest processor the motherboard will take. Its still a really fast laptop for general use, and built solid as hell ! It runs linux or windows 10 well. Lots of cheap spare parts on ebay, and as you say easy to work on which makes it a good project laptop which isn't too expensive.
    Drivers are now here : download.lenovo.com/eol/index.html?redir=y&redirsrc=4

    I have this beast with i7 CPU as my back up laptop (i use desktop). I've had it for about 8 years and now it started giving me fan error which is very common in this model. i ordered a replacement fan and waiting for it so i can install it. I even dropped it a couple times and nothing happened! I absolutely love this laptop!

    Still use a T410 just for home use, internet, nas transfer that kind of stuff, use a desktop for the grunt work. Best upgrade I made was dumping out the DVD drive and installing a second SSD drive in it's place. Lenovo after the T430 unfortunately have gone the thin is better route that has near on killed upgradability.

    Still have some of these in use at work so I wouldn’t really class this as retro yet, old yes but not retro for a good few more years yet.
    Great robust business class laptop that was built to last.

    Very helpful video. I was about to unnecessarily go shopping for a better laptop to run fusion 360 & some other cad cam programs for home use. I think now I'll just adjust settings to get by for.

    This will be my 3rd Lenovo. I had 2 x200 but the usb are all broken connecting to arduino`s mega`s sending data. Hopefully the USB`s can be replaced if I brake any of these. You can replace one USB on a x200 next to the audio port.

      Have you tried the browser plugin h264ify? It really helps with RUclips performance on older systems
