4 years old? Why are you complaining? I have 10 years old lenovo and it's still a good browsing machine, what's wrong with your laptop?
>>55639354
>4 years old
You don't know how to take care of stuff
4 years old is nothing
a core2duo laptop from 2008 is still usable today if you aren't a fucking retard

GOML
4 years old can be a lot, depending on the machine.
My X220 works beautifully, while my sister bought some Acer and it has aged terribly bad.

>Would be a PowerBook G4 if I didn't just kill the battery
repack that shit
>>55639354
I've got a shitty acer laptop that lasted like a year before I replaced it. Shortest period of time I've ever had a laptop in use, usually switched 'em out every 7 or so years. Got it mainly to tow around with a bag full of other shit.
go get something with actual build quality that'll last you the next decade
shit, I still have a bunch of the older machines (including another Acer, which is held together with a retarded amount of duct tape -- never buying Acer again), they're just a bit slow and get relatively short battery life
I don't see myself changing this laptop until it just breaks or something major
>>55640028
I would if I could afford to buy some 18650s

Recently fixed up my brother's 8 year old MacBook unibody.
Threw in an SSD, 8GB of RAM, new battery and OS for a total investment of 170EUR which is now perfectly usable and realistically good to go for another 3 years.
>>55640074
What's going to happen to it in three years?
>>55640050
admittedly, this
looked into repacking a battery recently, and it's more money than I feel like laying down, assuming you don't chance it and get super-cheap chinese shit
HP pavilion x360 here, shit 720p screen and i got really big scratches on it in less than a year luckily i only take notes on it
>>55639354
>less than an hour battery life
>5 year old HP with AMD CPU and GPU
>fan never turns off
>touch screen gets phantom touches every few minutes
Thank fuck for xinput disable 12
>>55640087
The CPU can't be upgraded and neither can RAM past 8GB - if websites don't start slimming down soon and if browsers keep being RAM hogs this may eventually render it unviable.
Who knows though. Also reapplied thermal paste, which was completely cracked and dry at this point.
>>55639354
i feel you familia.

I swear to god this shit won't fucking break anymore, is just like my Thinkpad t22.
>>55639354
Just get a used ThinkPad with 10 times the specs for $100
Buy a new one if you don't like your current. It's that simple.
>>55640000
that 1600x1200 IPS though
still the best
>>55639620
This. I have a T500 with a Core2 Duo T9400 that runs flawlessly. Only thing I've added has been a SanDisk SSD, made a huge improvement in performance.
>no battery
>8 years old
>2Ghz 'pentium'
>GANOOLONICKS
>keyboard with literally no feedback and missing function buttons from a failed clean
I'm gonna replace the keyboard (for like 10$) but otherwise it's still okay
