When I got my T450s I was not quite sure, if and how good it would work with linux.

I must say that I am pretty impressed: Currently I am using Ubuntu Gnome 15.10. Everything is working out of the box, except the 3-Finger-Gestures and the Fingerprint-Reader.

  • A Fix for the Fingerprint-Reader can easily be found online
  • For the 3-Finger-Gestures I did not yet find a fix, but even coming from a mac I quickly ended up not really wanting to have it anymore.

##Interesting things about the hardware

I personally chose the T450s because it fits in the ultrabook-category while still have features that now a days you usually only find in thicker and bigger laptops:

  • full size ethernet-jack
  • SATA-HDD-Slot
  • and on to of that a mSATA-Slot (if you are not using an LTE-Module)
  • 1 SO-DIMM-Ram Slot
