I do have a second gen i3 desktop that I built years ago. It had mint on it at one time or another.

Just be aware that the Tx40 line has NO physical buttons whatsoever. Only the virtual buttons, and so amongst Thinkpad fans, it is generally the most maligned of all models. If you prefer physical buttons, just something to be aware of.

I use an USB mouse on all my laptops. I never really like the mouse pads.

I admit they have a learning curve, but I've come to work it just fine... puts "lap" in laptop.
