Dell keyboard comparison.
Years ago someone made a software for testing keyboards and mice https://github.com/ad8e/input-polling-test. Supposedly ThinkPads have around 62hz effective polling rate while someone tested a Dell Precision 7520 and it had 1000hz, which makes A LOT of difference for fast typing/inputs. I'm also a fan of TrackPoint, so if those tests are true, then to many, the last Dell with TrackPoint and 1000hz keyboard would be the best laptop. Could Dell owners make those test to confirm this?

Framework: Open Sourcing Our Firmware
The scrambling is easy to see once you know it's happening: press k and l simultaneously on your Thinkpad keyboard. It'll always come out "lk" unless you deliberately separate them.
Testing was done [0], but it's not written in an easy-to-understand way. As a summary, Thinkpad keys are scrambled within 15-23 ms. Usually, humans ascribe scrambled letters to their own mistakes, but this time it's the keyboard's fault. Lenovo continues to ignore the issue.

Charlie calls out Hasan on Gfuel whataboutism take
You can flash QMK supported kb from 125hz to 1000hz. Most prebuilt keyboard has 1khz these days. You can check your polling rate with this, if you press keys at the exact same time, and there is 1ms delay between them, u have 1khz.

The stock edk2 menu has, like, two items.
System76 have built a more serious setup UI: https://github.com/system76/firmware-setup
Microsoft’s https://github.com/microsoft/mu also probably contains UI from the Surface line or something??
What are some alternatives?
