I still have my old Lenovo X61T which is nearly as old. With maxed out RAM (4GB) and an SSD it is actually still quite usable (running Linux). I love its great keyboard, that’s the reason I kept it. At some time my kids discovered that it is still able to run Minetest at reduced settings and so it now is part of the occasional LAN-Party when friends are over. Opens my heart to see the old buddy right in the middle of action being used by a bunch of kids that are only slightly over half its age!
Well, you just have to not use the internet. Just like in the olden times…
I also have an old XP laptop stored away. Its only purpose: Talk to my old photo negative scanner whose software won’t run on more recent OS’s. Only communication with the outside world is by USB memory stick.
