I have Trixie and TDE testing running just fine as well on a 2008 ThinkPad 
X200. And it isn't even slow. I do wish that the Express Card were good 
for something -- apparently there is a USB 3.0 adapter that will work with 
external devices, but I've never seen one. (Alas, I have a world of PCMCIA 
stuff that work with some older portable machines I have, but backward 
compatability is now more a joke than a desired attribute. Would be great 
to be able to use a PCMCIA floppy drive, for instance.)
