How is the state of the kvm over lan, Serial over Lan, and drive over lan implementation on the T420 wrt Linux?
Can the keyboard, drive, etc be securely accessed from behind a firewall?
I just bought a T440p as a dev machine, and am running vagrant -> VirtualBox -> CentOS 6 to run in turn a full stack of PostgerSQL, Java on Tomcat, Java and Scala on Play! and angular on the browser. I barely notice it, and probably will have a couple of inactive VMs set up, so I can switch back and forth between unrelated tasks. Build performance is good, in part because I'm rarely compiling linking and provisioning more than one thing at any given moment! Eclipse/Maven/java/Scala are memory hogs, though, so I bought 16 GB of ram. A much smaller netbook gave good build performance, but was constrained to 4 GB, and I needed at least 8 and perhaps 12, so bought a machine with slots (;-)) --dave -- David Collier-Brown, | Always do right.
