Hi, After having repeated problems with my x121e i have complained to Lenovo until they agreed to offer me a new machine.
The X121e was running 12.04 without a problem but it is no longer in production and all they can offer me is the x130e. From what i can tell its all pretty similar to the x121e but i am not sure if there might be some compatibility problems. My worry is mainly about the wireless which i see is now Broadcom. Can anyone tell me if these specs will be a problem and if the wireless is likely to work. Thanks, James.
