No chicklets on mine!

Also, the SSD is an option, not standard, in case you want that. (I certainly did.)

You can call them on the phone with any questions -- I found them responsive and helpful.

I will surely look forward to a laptop that comes with SSD. Let me see if it is still available. What is your concern @ the chicklet keyboard? I thought they were the best keyboard designs. The slightly inward keys are found nicely by our fingers.

I don't like the feel of many such membrane keyboards, although to be fair, I haven't used one extensively. The keytops often feel less certain to me, as does as well the keys' "action" when being depressed.

IBM, now Lenovo, "traditional" laptop keyboards have had a reputation for very good feel. But the laptop industry seems to have been moving en masse towards membrane (aka "chicklet") keyboards. If Lenovo's now making the same move, I wonder whether they've managed to overcome what I perceive as these deficiencies.

Also, many of the membrane keyboards I've seen do not curve the keytops. This seems to make the center of the key less find-able by touch, and keystroke registration when hitting the edge or the corner of a key can feel and/or be less certain, in my admittedly anecdotal and limited experience.
