Supports scrolling, two finger tap, pinch to zoom, circular scrolling, corner tap and many other functions of modern touchpads. Fully customizable through a software from manufacturer. Palm rest is wrapped with custom leather vinyl decal. Clean installation, no bubbles, detached edges etc. The original trackpoint is working as normal. Both options are available at the same time. Heat The heat under idle is close to stock. Under heavy load test about 5-7C higher than the original. Actually, heat is now similar to a stock 1.8GHz with L7700 processor. Normal temperatures when using for daily tasks (office, internet etc). Gets hotter when watching HD videos on youtube, but still within the norms. Keyboard Fn and Ctrl buttons are swapped on the keyboard (can be easily swapped back). Function is configurable from the BIOS. The layout is QWERTZ (Swiss). Covers French, German and English keys. I can change it to a QWERTY / Hebrew if necessary. Visual state Very clean, no cracks or hard scratches, only minor signs of wear. Summary The machine is very robust. Feels much-much faster than original 1.6GHz or 1.8GHz, 2.0GHz machines. The body, on the other hand, remains the same thin X61s. The screen is amazing, high resolution 4x3 is very good for web browsing and other tasks. Some old-school Thinkpad fans prefer trackpoint to touchpads, but once you start using this touchpad you will love it. The circular scrolling is amazing. The experience is close to mouse wheel!
