Great experience with MX17

#1 Post by andreas »

Hi, just wanted to let you know that I really like MX17. I recently installed this distribution / release on my Lenovo T420 and everything performed successfully. MX looks really cool ! Of course I haven't yet tried every tool provided, but I am doing good progress with exploring all the features and functions of MX. Up to now most of the things work out of the box, just as I would expect it. Great experience for me !

MX will definitely run great on that T420.

the T420 has a terrific keyboard. I moved to a T520 and I miss the 420's keyboard.

I always thought the T520 was just a 15" version of the 420. They changed out the keyboard on the bigger version?
I also have a X220 that has the nice keyboard, and an older T410 which has a slightly smaller, less nice keyboard, but still better than the chicklet keyboards.

Actually I have a t530. Typo on my part. The 30 has a different keyboard.

That explains it. I have heard people say they like the keyboard better on the X and T 20 series. It still looks like a decent keyboard on the 30 series though, better than most keyboards I've seen.
