May I ask, what do you find special with Arch? Since it's the Window manager that you use mostly, you could use any other distro. On the other hand, I remember having many issues with Arch when they changed some settings, and since I switched to Debian, which I find more stable.

I am using a Thinkpad x220 with arch and never had any problems whatsoever. Except that I had to set some key functionality myself (volume keys etc.), it almost worked perfectly right out of the box.

Also, i had less problems with arch than other distros, but more importantly, if you had problems it was significantly easier to fix under arch because you knew how everything worked.

I, for one, can't stand how all other distros do package management, especially package names. Ubuntu is the worst offender in this department in my opinion.
