The convertible X-series laptops are kind of shit, huh?

Don't fall for the x220t/x230t meme.

Thinkpad T450/T450s given your budget and the ones listed being garbage.

are there mods for the newer thinkpads to remove the touchpad?

It's a wacom pad you stupid fuck

Can anyone tell me why people are converting about Intel management for the CPU on t440s? Why is it such an issue

I'll look into that one, but can you give me a brief insight into what exactly is wrong with the ones I posted? Namely with the B and D one.

mine can
>Shitter hinge.
been working fine for ten years

works fine with MS onenote
>Tablet mode with Linux leaves a lot to be desired.
well yeah lunix is a piece of shit so whatever
i agree about disliking the x220t/x230t though

Is $145 for a X230 with 320GB HDD 4GB RAM Core i5 3320m 2.6GHz Win7 a good deal? Also, I've only been looking at stuff on eBay, so any online store recs would be welcome too.
