How old is your PC / Laptop?

[Huskerboy]

My current laptop is a Dell. I bought it about 3 years ago. It still works great, but I want to buy a new Dell - like the new one I have at work. How old is your PC or laptop?

Desktop at home: 4 years old
Laptop at home: 3 years old
Desktop at work: 1 year old
Laptop at work: 2 months old

Also, if you were on the market for a new laptop, what would you recommend?

Just curious?

Laptop = 4 years old
Destop = 2 1/2 years old

Old laptop that sits on shelf = 6 years old
Old Desktop that sits on shelf = 5 years old

Work laptop - 1 year with me, unknown with past users

I like my work laptop, it's by Lenovo. We have docking stations so you when you are at a desk you just click it in and then can use a regular screen, keyboard, and mouse - very functional that way.

My cuddly-wuddly Shuttle barebone is about one year old I think.

My old desktop's motherboard broke and I wanted a completely new, up to date one anyway.

Don't have a laptop. I built my desktop from scratch in 2001 and it's still going strong with a few subsequent upgrades. So it is 8 years old.
