[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 4077911, member: 3099"] I have a boat anchor of a laptop. Dell something or other that's over 10 years old. While it's actually spec'd still decent, it won't even run Windows 10 because the i7 quad core CPU is too slow for it. :rolleyes2 It has decent graphics and is otherwise in good shape except I need to replace the CMOS battery which is a 5 minute thing. Anyway, I slapped a $40 SSD drive in it and loaded Linux Mint on it. Now I have to figure out what the hell to do with it. I also have a new Macbook Air with the M1 chip too. [/QUOTE]
