Wanted Features and Options / Re: battery indicator
Last post by specing - February 27, 2015, 11:45:17 AM> Status LEDs are all good for me, just make sure they don't blind you while working at the device.
Since they would be MCU controlled, you could adjust their intensity, colour and even turn them off completely via OS and/or keyboard binds (bypass OS).

Displays / 4:3 Aspect ratio display
Last post by user123 - February 25, 2015, 09:23:09 PMHello, I think here we could find lots of people who have their old T60 Thinkpads or like old style 4:3 displays for convenience working at office, and maybe would like to have something similar to it.
This topic is created to find out what are the solutions. If you have any known 4:3 aspect ratio panel available on a market, please do not hesitate to share it.
Also please leave your message if you like the idea of 4:3 screen laptop.

Wanted Features and Options / Re: battery indicator
Last post by Adarion - February 25, 2015, 06:36:41 PMThat looks quite nice an comfortable.
Sometimes it is these small LEDs that add a lot of comfort. I was totally blow when I read that (iirc) Lenovo killed the HDD/SSD activity LED. This is really a cheap item but adds comfort and control for the user. Status LEDs are all good for me, just make sure they don't blind you while working at the device.

Last post by Adarion - February 25, 2015, 05:40:45 PMHard decision. I'd love to have a backlit one, but I also have relatively large fingers. So still key size > backlight function.

Last post by Adarion - February 25, 2015, 05:39:30 PMI never spilled on a keyboard (yet, 25 years and counting 
) but once I had a keyboard severly smoked due to a laboratory fire. I could still clean it but it took a lot of time. And soot is a semiconductor so I had to be thorough.
So if it can withstand some minor spills, sand, dust or cookie crumbs it will be fine.

Keyboards / Re: What other keyboards do yo...
Last post by Adarion - February 25, 2015, 05:36:49 PMI must admit that X30 keyboard looks pleasing. (I personally don't need Windows keys.) Backlit does have some advantages when you're working in darker areas. Should be switchable, though.
The T60 one still looks nice enough.
Both have real F-keys, separate set of cursor keys and a solid Ins/Del...PgUp/Dn block. Very nice.
Can SysRq (REISUB) be reached without the blue Fn-key?
Are they available in international layouts?
