Hi, interesting Tell HN! I like repairing stuff, started in 2018 and gained more skills since.
The Phenom II X4 isn't bad (according to https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_list.php https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_list.php), there is a variety of model numbers but they all seem to have the same kind of performance as the i5-3337U in the (very portable) somewhat old laptop I'm using right now, which is usable.
- I recently upgraded a low-end Lenovo Ideapad (from 2019? 2020? or so) from HDD to SDD and from 4 GB to 12 GB of memory. This laptop contains a Celeron CPU that has worse(!) overall performance than the Phenom II X4 despite being 10 years newer.
- My personal laptop is from 2012 (bought used in 2015 or 2016 for pretty cheap), upgraded memory to 16 GB
- Also repaired ~3-5 retro computers over the last year!
- Just repaired my toaster last evening (broke yesterday morning)
