So... I bought a X201 tablet for 120 european pesos, unlocked BIOS, didn't come with an HDD.
Slapped a blank 120gb SSD in it, replaced thermal paste, what would you do now? Asside from installing gentoo of course

Sell it for 150 and pat yourself on the back for being a true hacker

Put Xubuntu/Ubuntu MATE or Linux Mint Xfce/Mate on there. It will run smooth like butter and have excellent pen support out of the box.

I've been using my X200 tablet for years now and it never let me down, especially now that I have an SSD in there. I used it in university and now I'm using it as my daily driver laptop (studying and my online businesses).

I may end up picking up an X220 just for the extra power since I want to run a virtual machine on it, but otherwise, I'm happy with it.
