My laptop at home is going on 5-6 years old. So not quite as bad. But it's definitely time to consider a new one.

My old DELL pc is over TEN YEARS OLD.

I'd left it behind when I moved out, but recently the ex was going to throw it away so I said I'd take it.

Still works fine. nod

Impressive for sure. lol lol lol

I use to take great pride in wringing the last drop of usefullness of a computer, now its just too tedious. Computer companies always change some stuff to force you to upgrade at somepoint.

when I read that, I felt that weird/funny bittersweet feeling which told me that the things that were so fresh, wild and NEW back in the day are now RELICS...

damn, I don't feel old at all, but suddenly I've realized (once again) that my childhood/teenage years are LONG gone lol

God bless the 90s

My Macs are great, too. I don't see why I would replace them - I'll just keep updating the OS and run them into the ground. The technology will have evolved into something new by then, anyway. shrug

I have my great-grandmother's rocking chair (made by my great-grandfather), a wash stand from my grandma, and an Eastlake dresser that I bought, myself.

I also have lace that my grandma crocheted (and dresser scarves that she embroidered), and quilts that my grandma and great-grandma made for me.

But my most prized possessions are probably the paintings my other grandma did.

I feel so lucky to come from a family of "makers." cool
