This category while generally named is dedicated to the current Lenovo ThinkPad that I own. This may change over time but this is by no means a general ThinkPad reference. Also keep in mind that most of the information contained within pertains to ThinkPads running Linux, more specifically Arch Linux.

ThinkPad X200

Around the beginning of 2017 I started researching a solid Linux laptop, something cheap yet powerful enough to handle everything I could throw at it. After a bit of searching and a lot of reading I came upon the X220 series of ThinkPads. These laptops are held in pretty high regard all across the internet for their remarkable compatibility with Linux. While on the smaller side for laptops, I tend to be one who uses my desktop when I am at home almost exclusively and as I plan on using it this on the go (and to replace my aging tablet), it should be fine for my needs.

Notes

The following is all of the notes I have collected and/or written while using my ThinkPad X220. This information should remain up-to-date as long as you see that the ThinkPad X220 is still my main laptop.
