Great laptop but minor grievances

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros:
- ThinkPad durability. It isn't flimsy.
- Nice wide-angle, anti-glare 17" screen with true blacks and vibrant colors.
- Runs Linux Mint. Disabling secure boot allows for proper installation of drivers.
- Nice Bios GUI.
- Dedicated Fn keys without needing the Fn key.
- LED indicators for caps lock, num lock, speaker mute, mic mute.
- Nice response from keyboard.
Cons:
- Fan blows heat from the T2000 on the right side on your mouse hand. It should blow out the back.
- I was able to swap the left Ctrl and Fn keys with bios, but there is another less obvious but frustrating annoyance: I am always hitting the page up and page down keys by accident when using the cursor keys to edit text.
- They need to redesign the keyboard to be more like a full-sized professional keyboard. They got 2 more inches to design it right.
- It doesn't hide fingerprints well, though the laptop cleaner tends to clean it up fast.

This ThinkPad P17 replaces a ThinkPad T420 and it is my fourth or fifth ThinkPad. I keep buying ThinkPads because they are tough workhorses and because they come standard with Windows Professional (not home versions). I've been using ThinkPad exclusively for so long I can't even remember exactly which model was my first one. Lenovo has definitely earned my business since buying out IBM's PC division.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So I went all out. This is the fastest computer I have ever owned. I have bought many gaming computers. Alienware, Asus, Acer, Cyber Power. Just what you get with Lenovo is the real deal. It's made to handle a load. This by far beats all competition in the price range. GRADE A+ will buy Lenovo from now on.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was bigger and bulkier than I thought and made a rattling noise when turning on.....the machine runs fast and would probably e good for someone who needs all the features, but too bulky for me.
