I really like the #ThinkPad X220 keyboard. If you prefer the newer chicklet style keys, the X230 has that.

I do a lot with #chromebook laptops and I like them, but keyboards are not as good and you'll have to flash #coreboot to it (which can be quite a process).

I've done that many times to several different Chromebook models. I haven't yet done it one of the of "ThinkPad" Chromebooks.

@retroedgetech I had ThinkPad T60. Best keyboard I ever typed. X230 chicklet style keyboard and T470's are good too, but I miss context menu button.

I tried X230 classic keyboard but It's not so good in terms of typing expiriebce. Layout is good, but the buttons itself are not, not like on T60. Probably because it's a copy, not original keyboard (I ordered it in online shop).
It's better to use local shops when it comes to buying original ThinkPad parts from guys that disassemble laptops and sells parts from them.
