I'm curious to know if TrackPoint scrolling works nicely (or at all)

  It does. The TrackPoint actually works pretty well under macOS on the X220. Not quite as smooth as it does with Windows, but definitely usable.

    When I Hackintosh'd my X60, one thing I liked about it rather more than Windows was the pointer acceleration --- which if you search online, everyone else seems to hate (although they might be using regular mouses, in which case the sensation is quite different.) IMHO a TrackPoint really feels better with acceleration than not, because it makes it more sensitive; otherwise it gets tiring pretty quickly to shove the pointer around the screen, or you lose pixel-precision for small movements if you set the full-screen speed high enough to make big movements easily.

      For those that hate the acceleration, one can download and install the SteelSeries ExactMouse package, I have it set to always disable mouse accel. Works great.

    Hm. I have to dig through my pile of Thinkpads to see if I have an X220 still. I mostly use Linux now, but I'm interested to see macOS on the X220 in action firsthand. Might be useful to have around in any event as a backup for my 2011 MBP.
