I chose the Nvidia GeForce and I hope it works. At least they did not menti=
on anything about Optimus. For the wireless I still have the old Ultimate-N=
 6300 wireless adapter from my broken T530 and attempt to put it in the T54=
0. I hope it fits. At least until the T530 I was able to change parts. Oh I=
 hope for the best.
Otherwise I might have to switch to Gentoo for a while. Which I wouldn't li=
ke that much.

Cheers

Hi

The graphics part sounds good. So you mean you got a new (2014) Thinkpad
where you can choose between discrete and integrated graphics or does it
only have discrete graphics?

Please tell me the model number and how well the graphics works for you :)
