I also have had mostly positive experience with many Thinkpads.  Note I
said Thinkpads and not Lenovos.

I also have an X220, running a recent 10-STABLE.  Pretty much everything
works including wireless with the Intel Centrino Advanced-N
6205 and suspend and resume.  I haven't figured out how to control the
brightness and there is an annoying BIOS (bug/feature).  You can't
legacy boot from a GPT-partitioned disk without UEFI.
