I was wondering about the battery life. Suppose I could buy a 9cell for the 201
x230
>>51840780

I have an x201 with 9cell battery, I can get 7-8 hours while programming.

The X200 is free as in freedom

It is your only option if you don't hate freedom.

Coreboot contains non-free firmware blobs.

Also I need to be able to disable the touchpad. I think it works with synaptic so that shouldn't be so hard

x201 obiviously desu
I'd seriously just cowboy up and get the t520. It's not really much bigger than the 420 and usually cheaper than the x. The difference in aspect ratio makes the x200 about the same size overall. Unless you really need retard levels of portability, the 520 has a better screen in addition to being bigger.

Pick one. The 200 isn't portable in any modern sense.

At that point you can comfortably go with a 8460 or 8560 elitebook.
