Putting aside this stupidity, you are again missing the point of the x200 being introduced in 2008 - their chips could be from 2007 at most. And the one in the picture is a x220, which is from 2011.

Idiots.

I'd pick the x220 and pray that it comes with the IPS panel option. The next workday I'd sneak a precision Philips head through the metal detector and keyboard swap that qwertz with a co-worker's freedom-layout in under 60 seconds while they are out getting their complementary onions latte.
