You want the x301. Trust me. You do.

Install Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex on it.

<br>
I&#39;m planning to buy a new thinkpad that is supposed to run linux. I was<br>
wondering what is a good but at the moment with the state of the new lenovo<br>
thinkpads that seem from the list to be a bit sketchy. This will be a traveling<br>
laptop so it needs to be sturdy.<br>
<br>
Should I go with the older and familiar t61 or something of the newer lines.<br>
AFAIK I should stear clear of the lenovo 3000 series and the ideapad searies.<br>
<br>
I&#39;m looking for something work funded that will be able to do some computations<br>
with a 15.4&quot; screen. (probably from the things in the 1500$ range give or take<br>
a bit)<br>
<br>
Recommendations and possible issues?<br>
<br>
thanks<br>
