@neotoy jeez, just realised the "new" laptop turns ten this year. i7-7500u with 32gb of ram has lasted well, despite a drop which broke part of the lid a year in.

I'm not supposed to talk about the ages of my toys any more, but one of my 2 current laptops is an Acer D250 netbook from <mumble mumble> years ago.
