Thinkpad T440 - 7 years of daily use (could probably use some cleaning inside). I expect it to last quite a bit longer, still. It did cost $500 + some upgrades.

17 or so year old IBM T41 stopped working about 2 years ago.
- game_the0ry 4y agoMy friend, I am not shitting on other products, just pointing out that macs are up there with the best of them, including lenovo :)
- megous 4y agoI was just saying this is not unique to Apple.
- kjs3 4y agoYeah, give laptops a good cleanout every couple of years even if you're a non-smoking obsessive clean freak. My T42 started acting weird a while back and opened it up...numerous odd places clogged with lint, dust and what I assume is cat hair. Worked fine after degunking.
- megous 4y agoSo I checked the T41, and it was just a dead power adapter. After making a new one from a spare DC-DC converter, the laptop itself still seems to work. Cleaning it up might be a next step. :)
