The display has such a narrow acceptable angle of view that you can't angle it to get the center and the top and bottom all with a decent black point at the same time.
I used both "grub>" and "grub-rescue>" before it was working) but it does just fine for OS development. It was a rough Linux install, ( noapic edd=off use a new kernel, Debian has the iwlwifi drivers in nonfree, don't use uefi, touchpad in legacy mode. I finally got lucky with my second attempt at their "deliver to store today" option.)
I went to pick one up at four different stores and none actually had them when I arrived. Do not believe the "in stock" indication on the web site. (Careful: it is the bait and switch model. Another is the small SSD this particular unit came with, but I'm planning on replacing that.Īcer Cloudbook 14" 2G ram, 32G eSSD. I used to intentionally and lazily not pack the charger, which is actually quite light, and then after a long day find myself with low battery and no charger.
One con is getting used to the extra long battery life. I have plans to upgrade a few components as time progresses: bump RAM up to 16GB, replace either the smartcard reader or the WWAN modem with an M2 SSD, that's about it. I almost forgot! When I got this laptop, my typing speed jumped by nearly 50%! I was using a Dell Inspiron (from 2010) before, and although the keyboard on it is terrible for typing, the ThinkPad has really good keys and typing is just such pleasure on it. It has taken a few beatings - filled backpack falling laptop-side-first onto a railing from a height of a half-metre, dropped/slipped from a sitting desk to the floor, thrown across a (small) room and (upon a failed catch) rolling on its side - but there's no sign of damage, either in appearance or running.
It's so light I no longer have to worry about "lugging a laptop", and most times I pick it up and carry around with just two fingers. I adore this laptop, it runs like a constant stream of freshly melted butter.
