I got my X201 on Thursday. It was a busy day, and I was travelling Friday and visiting family on Saturday so I did not have much of a chance to poke around, but here I am now!
I was surprised to find that it did not come with a power cord so I had to go to Staples to get one and it increased the cost by 25%. More of a tribute to how cheap this was than anything. It is my first experience with booting my OS from an SSD and I have to say, wow was that fast. What a pleasure. I am really happy with the size and weight, as I will need to cart it around on my bike a lot of times and it is very compact. Just finished downloading all the software I want at this time (Chrome, iTunes, Quickbooks and Neverwinter Nights) and I still have 81GBs free. After my experience with downloading torrents on my windows port last time, I think I will stick to netflix or download them on my iMac and move files over via usb stick or dropbox.
Can't wait to see how it runs Quickbooks, which is a bit of a resource hog, and to see if it can run NWN well at the same time.
Thanks for your help all.
