I bought an old toshiba about seven years ago. still works just as well as it did when I got it. it was maybe 5 years old then. it's on windows 8 or something so no new updates to bloat it and I'm running old software on it. cost 130$ I think at the time, I had to buy new batteries at some point. but fuck, toshiba make good stuff.
Indeed I do not use it for that kind of thing. It's mostly a youtube machine these days, still good for running my music software though, which doesn't rely on internet connection.

A security risk.
Hope you're not doing any sensitive activities like online banking or emails (connected to important apps etc).

Yeah I went a Lenovo for similar reasons. Unfortunately I cant replace my battery though.
What did you get and how much you paid?
t480s, I think i paid 350? Wasnt the cheapest but it had a couple of months warranty on it.
