Keyboard and touchpad, the t420s is the last gen of Thinkpads with the classic keyboard layout and the separate left and right. I don't really like what they did, the new gen is better for me when it comes to that, but lenovo just stopped putting a quad core in the none s t4x0 models. :( 

Alright, you dont like the keyboard that is your opinion but there are now ways to use the xx20 keyboards in xx30 laptops http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?f=69&t=120776 That was the first thread I could find about it but there is more info on it.

There are plenty ones with i7's but you wont find one with a quad core seeing as lenovo never sold a t430 with quad core. Your best bet would be to get an A grade t430 with i5 igpu hd+ screen and good battery and then pick up an i7 3612qm, that cpu will give no issues what so ever regarding heat output and it has been done before.

I found a i7 3612qm in Denmark that in FN (factory new) but it costs about 425€ and a laptop that is in decent shape is 675€, so that is 1100€...

I have a hard time trusting Ebay and used CPUs unless I took them out my self.
