two daily drivers..
Gateway laptop with i5-3337u 8GB /500GB ... had 16GB and a 240GB SSD sitting round for over a month, but stupidity with w10 MS account is putting me off transferring.
Toshiba A200 with mighty all powerful T7100 C2D, cringe before it's awesomality. Broke kb, desktop keeb sitting on it, Two whole GB, W7. Has some intel hyperboostoturbospeedinator 1GB buffer RAM/SSD thing which is why I guess 2GB stays near tolerable.
Other crap in the "modern use" category, which I fire up and use from time to time,
Lenovo X131e chromebook with the sandycrotch dualcore celeron. ... also have RAM and SSD for that I keep meaning to upgrade, and put some kind of "real OS" on
HP Mini netbook with Atom n270 lubuntu
Extremely crapped out HP pavillion laptop with burned up legacy HID support, needs USB card, external keyboard, TurionX2, workshop donkey running xubuntu.
"visiting" notebook, because of less crapped out look and having nothign too important on it, a Toshiba 15" with sandycrotch dual Pentium... B840 or something always forget. 8GB, w10, weirdly the one thing in the house that best qualifies for w11 upgrade due to TPM support.
Upcoming...
i7-4770 Thinkcenter in build up.
C2Q in planning/build
T-400 to take over from A200... not sure if it's cranky or software b0rked... anyhoo 2.4Ghz c2d and will get 8GB and SSD
Asus i7 4k series laptop under investigation, some flakeouts, mostly wifi related... may be fixed and built for use... kinda back burner things just waiting for exact right parts to eventually show up... maybe should push harder on this while it's still useful.
Unicorn herding operations are proceeding, but all the totes of hens teeth and barrels of rocking horse poop give them plenty of hiding spots.
