The first computer I bought, an HP Intel Duo, was terribly old for the time. I remember turning it on and then going away to make coffee, as loading everything would take some minutes. The battery was a joke as well. I actually bought a Desktop, now that I think about it, because my laptop needed to be connected to the charger all the time.

Now, I don’t really want to complain about my HP because it allowed me to work from home, and I didn’t need anything particularly powerful to complete the job I was doing at the time, to be honest. I just required Google Drive, Zoom, and Windows Office.
Nevertheless, I changed to the computer I’m currently using after two years of getting my oldie laptop, which brought me a big relief. I can say that I loved getting that old computer just as much as I loved replacing it.
Thanks for reading this, and I hope you have a wonderful day and a top-notch computer (either now or in the near future).
