Title: How green was my valley, how old is my Dell. Post by: RED-DOG on February 04, 2018, 01:51:57 PM I was trying to figure out how old my laptop is. I can't find any paperwork and I can't remember when I bought it. The closest I can get is a photograph taken in 2009 with the lappy in the background, so somewhere around 9yo.
That seems like a good innings to me, anyone else still using one that's older? Title: Re: How green was my valley, how old is my Dell. Post by: Doobs on February 04, 2018, 05:51:30 PM My old Dell laptop must have been close to that age too. It was still going strong, but it ran on XP, and not only was it no longer supported, but I couldn't use a fair few websites.
I was sad to see the back of it, but the new one is so much more practical and much lighter. Title: Re: How green was my valley, how old is my Dell.
