This is my current two year old Laptop and I only use Laptops from now on. The only thing I wish it could do is run the 2 SSD's in a RAID 0 configuration.

5 year old Toshiba laptop... Thinking it is time for an upgrade so I am not embarrassed to have the weakest machine on the forums!
I have a MacBook, MacBook Pro, original iPad, and iPad 2. 



 

And an old Sager laptop that i built 10 years ago and use as a media server.  No clue on the specs, but it still runs Half Life 2 pretty well.

Sounds like it still does the job good enough!
It really does. If I had only one negative on that laptop, it's in its physical construction. The hinges are both broken, leading to its promotion/placement as a home theater machine. Soon though I plan on retiring it and replacing it with something quite a bit faster and smaller, and putting it in my office for the occasional game playing.
