My 8 year old laptop has Quad 2Ghz Processors and 16GB ram and a 500GB SSD. It's running ubuntu on a swing arm wall mount in my garage over my electronics station next to the lathe and below the lexan protected 4k tv. It' works great in that capacity and I don't see it dying any time soon.
8 Years ago was 2010. My replacement laptop is basically 2x the power of the old one, and that's really only for short bursts due to thermal issues. Actually the one in the garage likely is better for large parts of the year because it's cold in the garage.
