Did this with a Lenovo x131e. Had to use USB keyboard. Successful, but not worth it. Better off spending that money on a refurbished, (or refurb it yourself) ThinkPad T440p, T430, or T420.

    I don't think I'd want to do it again.
    My son has a T-400, and it works well with MAXXED RAM and and SSD w/ Win10...

        Ahhhh! One of my favorite ThinkPads! GREAT choice! The T400 was my first Lenovo "Daily Driver" several years ago. Yes, with an SSD, the T400 runs Win10 quite nicely! Especially with 8gb of ram.
