>>
>>62426195
The individual keys are more stable on the new keyboard, plus I think the theory is that by retaining the same surface area for the intended hit-zone while reducing the area around it, you reduce the chance of typos.
I don't like the new keyboard as much as the old but it's still easily the best laptop keyboard out there.

This is like when you ask for the new console for christmas and your grandparents tell everyone "we'll handle that gift!" and you unwrap the last gen or a complete knockoff because they think you're too stupid to tell the difference or it's not a big deal.

All laptops have slippery chiclet trash

I hate it

I need a laptop with a mechanical keyboard or something. I honestly don't give a damn if it's thicc; I can't type on normal laptops

honestly I sometimes feel like I should just get some kind of tablet+stand, one of those mice with a fingerball and an actual keyboard. Laptops just feel awful to type on, period.

I can't believe they dropped the ball *this* hard. I'm going to have to actually get an x330 or an x310

That should be pretty cheap to replace. And it's probably held in by only one or two screws if it's anything like the 420/520.

Easily explained. Nazis, the SS in particular, had the opportunity to see WAGNER EPICS comfy at their aryan homes with embedded ARYAN wives.

They were the first ones to get a prime time in those unrivalled - and sadly lost - times.

Now, follow, Adolf and his engineers decided to offer a 16:10 format on the TELEFUNKEN.

They should have used the P50 chassis design as a base

A 14 inch one of course

The T440p was the last 14 inch Thinkpad to be like this

They should have used that as the base

It even had the out-the-rear extendy grippy battery

>>62435613
too wide, vertical space is not enough for productivity.
Apple understands this, that's they reason they use 4:3 on the iPad, and 16:10 on the MacBooks.

Microsoft also realized that, that's why they use 3:2 on the Surface, which is even nicer than 16:10.

The reason Lelnovo uses it is price, 16:9 panels are cheaper.

Its a dumb axis to open the laptop with and also means that you can't have any ports on the rear and no batteries sticking out the back, which is a massive downside.

Not sure how Lenovo expects this to sell.
16:9 is an aspect ratio exclusively for children,
but children don't have $1500 bucks for a special edition T series laptop.
>>
>>62449769
BTW, is it one of those options documented in the manual?
I'm not exaggerating, this is one of the features that i consider when choosing to buy a laptop.

>>62449910
yes, my thinkpad manual (w541) has a complete description of all bios settings

>>62449993
Ok, thanks, very kind.
