New battery instead of new laptop – will see how long this more-than-3-year-old laptop can hold 🙂 Thank you Mr. Ballmer….

3년 넘은 내 랩탑… 원래 회사 정책상 3년마다 새걸로 교체해주는데 전 사장님께서 뜬금없이 윈팔 나올때 전직원 랩탑을 새걸로 선심성 교체를 해주셨었다.. 근데…

그 3년전의 선심이 3년이 되는 시점이 왔다..(아니 살짝 지났다..) 다들 PC가 너덜 거리고 하는데 버짓이 한정적이라 뻗은 랩탑부터 우선 교체해준단다..ㅎㅎㅎ

근데 내 노트북은 나름 견고한 Thinkpad. 약간 덜덜거리지만 죽지는 않는 끈질긴 내구성을 보여주시고 있는 중.. 그래서, “일단 난 배터리라도 흑흑- 이거 뭐 콘센트 없는 곳에는 가기가 힘들 정도이니…” 하고 읍소해서 이거 나마 받았다..-_-;;;;;;;;;

사장님 나빠요 모먼트…ㅎㅎ 아니 사장님 멍청했어요 모먼트인가? 아니다.. 한편, 본인이 관둘 걸 알고 한 신의 한 수 일수도…

With company’s campaign to deploy Windows 8, had to say goodbye to “not-that-old” laptop. My TP X220

Only has been 16 months, but brought good memories of using Thinkpad….(Well this one was not that great though had some issues with TPM chip, part of my fault but display was unstable)

Anyhow, among various options of new devices, I made a bold movement to stay with extension of current one X230 not any touch enabled devices because of CPU & Memory specifications.

X230 is not technically different than X220 similar processor (upgraded) with all other same form factors while the upgrade is obviously in keyboard. Finally, Thinkpad is moving away from “easily pullable” butons and keyboad has some nice features like light up from keyboard (by Fn+ Space).

The challenge for me is adjusting on change of keyboard layouts. By moving the power button to right, the new keyboard gave up 2 lines of keys for Function line keys (forced to single line)

* pageup/down button moved down to arrow button

* Home End Insert Delete button location has changed -driving me crazy 🙂
