Ask HN: How old is your computer that you use regularly?
A recent post (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6606056) about using a 6 year old laptop as the developement machine.
I have just retired an old Compaq with an Intel Celeron running WindowsXP with 4Gb of RAM just last year, it was a couple of years after Compaq was acquired by HP. I bought the Compaq computer is 2004. It lasted 8 years before it died. My development setup was through a terminal session and editing code with Vim.
So I am asking how old is your regular computer and what is that computer and its configuration
It will be interesting to see what is the oldest machine and its configuration.
