8 years old HP Pavilion g6 with 1.9gHz dual core with 2.4gHz boost, overclocked to 3.0gHz. Upgraded to SSD, 8GB RAM and run Chrome off a Ram drive. Windows 10.

It just won't die. I tear it down once a year and clean it. I've started transitioning everything off of it to an Ubuntu VM on a home Proxmox server with a pass-through GPU, provisioned with 4-core 4gHz processing power.

I guess the keyboard on it is what I'm most comfortable with. It's gone through a couple batteries and power bricks, and I keep expecting it to not boot up one day.

If I had to get another laptop, I would probably not make much of the monitor, and plug in my HD TV like I have now. I would probably look for one comparable in size... For the keyboard. Laptops have wonky keyboards sometimes.
