Well actually Windows 10 runs quite well on my circa 2010 Dell Core 2 Duo 2.66Ghz laptop with 8GB of RAM

That's a 3000$+ laptop at the time, makes me miss the portability of laptops.

But can you do anything productive on that thing now? How is the battery life?

Of course the battery sucks. But it’s easy to find a new battery if I cared. Also it’s extremely heavy. Before I retired it early this year. It was a computer that sat next to my work computer to do personal things on - Office 365, Chrome, etc.

It was the company laptop until 2012. The company folded and they sold everything really cheaply.

It could transcode one or two 720p streams simultaneously Witt Plex.
