The X220 ThinkPad is the Best Laptop in the World

FWIW, I don’t agree just because of the screen but it’s still better than anything on the market today.

    Agree, but I think the X230 is slightly better as it runs cooler, has a better iGPU, has USB 3 and you can classic keyboard swap anyways :)

    I snagged one in decent condition for £60 recently and plan to mod it up when I can, namely:

    • Quad core/i7-3612QE mod
    • 16G RAM DDR3L/2133Mhz
    • AVC Fan (quieter/cooler)
    • X220 Keyboard mod with X220 Palmrest
    • 720p IPS Screen (can do 1080p but that requires soldering)
    • Libreboot/me_cleaner (already ivyra1ned it).
    • A new 9 cell battery from Greencell.
    • Intel AC/AX wifi
    • A nice 1TB ssd!
