So does my 5yr asus netbook. but plenty of people would say otherwise for both.

  That's a pretty dumb comparison. With regular sharpening, a kitchen knife can be just as effective as a brand new one for decades. It'll cut food just as quickly and efficiently. A laptop may be workable, but it's going to become underpowered in empirical ways fairly quickly.

    as is missing the point of an exaggeration. but again, my 5yr laptop still does everything i need at the same speed as it did 5yrs ago. in fact, using the 3.1 kernel i think it's even faster than 5yrs ago. on the other hand, 2yr of sharpening my san mai honyaki blade made the balancing impossible to cut the sashimi slices i used to cut when it was new. They came out too irregular now. Also, if i had waited only 3 months before buying that knife, i would be able to buy the newer model with the nicer black handle instead of brow, which was only available to the Maguro bōchō at the time. I still regret it to this day.
