yeah, I'll be using it as a tablet, too

Oh. I'm not saying yours will have that functionality.

well, looking into the article

it IS the tablet version

That's sweet then.

But if you're expecting the modern style tablets... you're in for some serious disappointment in that area. 😄

It's more like two pregnant modern tablets glued together.

what do you mean by modern style tablets?

iPad and the like.

oh, not at all

anything in regards to heating issues?

Can't speak for the X200, but mine is great in that regard.

I've never heard the fan.

oh nice

It's on, I can feel a slight exhaust.

But never heard it.

ever disassembled it?

There's a little hatch for harddrive/SSD, and another little lid type thing for the RAM. That's all I've had to bother with.

oh ok

thanks for the info so far, dude

np

>no pen

urgh

What present to get for an artist? He likes to draw, read, make and compose

No tablet though, he draws on items

Hes also a programmer using a laptop constantly

a sketchbook

a set of really nice pens

and pencils

Could work - but would be kinda redundant

@kontroll hey dude how well does the screen work with fingers? have you tried a third party capacitive pen? it turns out the seller has lost the pen for SOME FUCKING REASON

No idea. I disabled finger input, and therefore also those cap pens.

Should be passable though.

many thanks, dude

I'll be getting this for absolute portability, my current laptop is 15.6"

fuckhuge

I'll give it a shot anyway once I get the laptop

I had a 16" before. I swear that fucker was made of cast iron.
