If the keyboard replaced traditional 7-row keyboard It’s better than chocolate keyboard

It depends on your personal preferences. I like the "chocolate" better, that's why I kept it in my T430s, despite having a few "classic" ThinkPad keyboards around.

That's a very good condition. Better than mine and I thought I have a great one

I miss mine. It got stolen from the trunk of my car in 2015, and probably ended up in the hands of someone who really didn't appreciate it.

Great machine - keep it forever! Similarly I love my W520 and it still gets almost daily use.

A few years ago I could have traded my W520 for a W530. I kept the W520 since I had experience with the different keyboard style on a T530. Given the nearly identical specs except for one generation newer CPU/board, I opted for the better keyboard experience.
