Appreciation post for my pristine & mighty W530 - almost filled to the brim!

Moved from Windows to Debian Linux on the T420
Nice! Have you thought of changing to an open source BIOS with Skulls? It's more secure and faster. You can now flash it with a flash drive using 1vyrain.

Why the heck are X230s running at around $300 on eBay?
i did the easiest one... 1vyrain, which is basically a softmod for the bios.. coreboot and libreboot are a different beast altogether, and afaik a physical bios flasher that you clamp to the bios chip...

How to create EFI partition?
Easiest way I've found to mounting it is with Hackintool from the Disks tab, you'll want to use that tool either way if you're fiddling around with a Hack.

My USB keyboard is randomly stops working. I have to sleep and wake my build to make it work again.
Download Hackintool to confirm your ports are working properly. This is also a handy tool to see all of your active kexts, check for updates etc. I often use it to update my kexts.

I'm making a kext updater, because half of the time spent maintaining a hackintosh is keeping it up to date.
A quick thought: Something similar (many) already exist. One is https://www.sl-soft.de/en/kext-updater/, another is https://github.com/ic005k/OCAuxiliaryTools, another is https://github.com/headkaze/Hackintool. Does yours offer something different?
