Yeah, true, I'm assuming most people here have old machines that still work. It's good to have one, if you don't!

My secondary is a 10-year old laptop which gets regularly used while sitting in bed in the morning, occasionally for actual work. The other backup is an old desktop I donated to my wife a few years ago, containing an unplugged SSD which is exactly as it was when I last used it. Both will still handle most of what I need, just a bit slowly.
