+ <div class="title">The Thinkpad is dead, long live the Thinkpad X230</div>
+ <div class="date"> 4th July 2013</div>
+ <div class="body"><p>Half a year ago, I reported that I had to find a replacement for my
+trusty old Thinkpad X41. Unfortunately I did not have much time to
+spend on it, but today the replacement finally arrived. I ended up
+picking a <a href="http://www.linlap.com/lenovo_thinkpad_x230">Thinkpad
+X230</a> with SSD disk (NZDAJMN). I first test installed Debian Edu
+Wheezy as a roaming workstation, and it worked flawlessly. As I write
+this, it is installing what I hope will be a more final installation,
+with a encrypted hard drive to ensure any dope head stealing it end up
+with an expencive door stop.</p>
+
+<p>I had a hard time trying to track down a good laptop, as my most
+important requirements (robust and with a good keyboard) are never
+listed in the feature list. But I did get good help from the search
+feature at <ahref="http://www.prisjakt.no/">Prisjakt</a>, which
+allowed me to limit the list of interesting laptops based on my other
+requirements. A bit surprising that SSD disk are not disks, so I had
+to drop number of disks from my search parameters.</p>
+
+<p>I am not quite convinced about the keyboard, as it is significantly
+wider than my old keyboard, and I have to stretch my hand a lot more
+to reach the edges. But the key response is fairly good and the
+individual key shape is fairly easy to handle, so I hope I will get
+used to it. My old X40 was starting to fail, and I really needed a
+new laptop now. :)</p>
+
+<p>I look forward to figuring out how to turn off the touch pad.</p>
