>>57374526
My current laptop is 4 months old but my MBP 15 inch is pushing 5 years and all I had to do was replace the HDD with an SSD after it failed.
My little sister uses it to play minecraft now :P

When people go outside, they sometimes like to bring a computer with them, for various reasons.

This doesn't apply to you, so it would be used for comfy bed computing instead.

>>57375780
I have merged my powerful computer with my bed.

Also i have one outside - my phone!

I have a laptop from early 2000s. Threw pfSense on it and it is now my router.

You don't need to upgrade because you're in a walled garden, and it wouldn't make a difference.

its a catch-22

4 years? I bought it just after Windows 8 came out ... my last laptop was when Vista came out. I have the worst timing.

After years of bouncing off my lower back, the whole left side of the case is fucked up; bezel cracked, fan vent fins gone. If I jostle it or put pressure in certain ways on that side (drop something on it, hit the shift key too hard) something shorts outs and the thing goes nuts. Sometimes it's just the video that goes nuts and I can blindly shut it down. Can no longer comfystation and type in bed.

Been wondering if I got a replacement shell if that will remedy the situation, I'm assuming the laptop is flexing since all the support structures on the left is busted. Really should start looking for a new one, but this one keeps hanging on. ;_; Even survived a partial water splash the other week.

Around 6 years old. Battery is in good shape but the chipset is so power hungry that I might as well never take it off the charger.

Comfiest keyboard ever though so I'll have a hard time ever getting rid of it

>>57374526
8 or 9 years now I believe.
>7200 RPM drive
>Dedicated graphics
>Hyperthreaded dual core CPU
Works great. My only complaints are heat issues (the fan is almost always on) and the battery lasts maybe an hour and a half (I should probably get it replaced though)

>>57376339
What is a walled garden?

>>57377264
Closed environment, so with macs they've locked down their package manager so it by default will only install approved packages from Apple. That way Apple have ensured their users are "safe". It's a walled garden because it's great on the inside but you can't get out of it to explore other things

Thinkpad t430 from 2012

I upgraded to 8GB of RAM and an SSD, and unless it breaks I can't see myself needing to upgrade for years. Literally the perfect computer.

>>57377430

you're wrong.

Is the 2012 Macbook Pro the best Macbook Apple has made? You can modify the majority of it with relative ease.

9, it broke a few months ago and I'm replacing it with the same thing till I have the money to upgrade to a Let's Note

Shitty 6 year old Acer currently running Mint

Got it for $400, and I'll probably only replace it when every last part goes belly up.

>>57377430
That's the thing though, you can get out. OS X is like finding yourself unrestrained in an unlocked padded room. You start in babby land, but you're only there for as long as you choose to be.

>>57374526
June 2011, ThinkPad T420.
Core i5-2520M, upgraded to 8GB RAM (dual channel) and some cheap SanDisk 128GB SSD.

€40 for the RAM, €50 for the SSD, €180 for the Laptop itself (came with 4GB RAM and 160GB HDD).

Everything bought in 2015. I will use it for years.

I was going to upgrade this year but Apple's new MacBook Pro didn't convince me to buy.
Hopefully they'll fix some of my problems with it next year.

Yeah. I replaced the SSD and upgraded the ram on mine too. This thing came with 2gb's! The machine would be slow as fuck without those upgrades.

And I need a new battery, but I will just buy a new laptop instead of upgrading this.
