Nice. Which Linux Distro will you install on them?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Arch on the X61 and Gentoo on the X41. I'm probably going to use the X61 as my main machine.

I predict they will install Fedora cause its works best on ThinkPad!

Interesting. I always found that Arch and Artix worked best, but I only have one ThinkPad. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

X41 and X61 for people who can't zoom in on pics.

Is the x61 usable in 2023 for general media consumption? I'm seeing one on sale for 30 bucks.
