Hi Ira, This is a different topic, but I am interested in what you have to say. Since I looked long and hard for a laptop I wanted to buy I would appreciate more details. In what ways do you think it is inferior to X60 (or X61s that I used to have[*]) and in general why in your opinion is it "second-rate design"? What are your experiences? What to look out for? Feel free to write privately if you feel the subject is too boring (or inflammatory) for the list. So far I am quite satisfied. Obviously, it will take a little bit more time to find out that stuff goes out of order at an appalling rate, but I have no reason to assume that so far... [*] So far it looks quite similar to X61s in terms of features, save for a different aspect ratio, a faster CPU, (what feels like) a better battery life, and the lack of a fingerprint reader (no tears shed for it here). The keyboard feels a little bit different, but it is in fact slightly wider and (IMHO) beats any desktop (let alone laptop) keyboard I've ever used, and I have already done some typing on it. It is also a lot cooler (in terms of temperature after being on for a long time, not appeal) than my X61s was. -- Oleg Goldshmidt | p...@goldshmidt.org _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
