Thinkpad x20x (s/t/i) Owners Thread

Did not see an owners thread yet for the new X201 series so I figured I would start one. I received my x201s on 3/4 with the following specs:



Lenovo x201s 5143-28U (Topseller Pre-Built) ~ $1500 shipped

  • Intel Core i7-640LM Processor (2.13GHz, 4MB L3, 1066MHz FSB)
  • 4 GB PC3-8500 DDR3 SDRAM 1067MHz SODIMM Memory (2 DIMM)
  • 12.1 WXGA+ LED backlight
  • 320 GB Hard Disk Drive, 7200rpm
  • TrackPoint with Fingerprint Reader and Touchpad
  • ThinkPad X200 Series 6 cell Li-Ion Battery
  • Bluetooth w/ antenna
  • Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6200 (2X2 AGN)
  • Genuine Windows 7 Professional 32
  • 3 Year Depot Warranty
Did a clean Windows 7 64-bit reinstall using ABR (same method as for Vista) and replaced the HDD with an Intel 80GB G2 SSD. So far I am quite pleased with the system. It is a direct upgrade from my x200s (which I am passing on to family), which I'd been using since it became available in 2009. This x201s has an NMB keyboard, where my x200s had a Chicony ( ).



A few people have requested that I test to see whether the palm rests from the x201s will fit on the x200s, which I have not been able to do yet since the older machine is at the depot right now. For what it's worth, I'd be surprised if it didn't fit, as the sizing looks identical. I'll confirm fitting once I have a chance to do so, assuming no one else gets to it before I do.



If you're waiting for your x201(s/t/i) or have received it, post here with your thoughts or questions!
