Yeah I hadn't realized how much laptops from that era sucked compared to now. Granted, that was around the time manufacturers actually started actually trying to make laptops better, but really only current laptops feel similar to desktops and even then because they're just designed to "race to sleep" any kind of workload that actually pushes them for more than 15 seconds at all it falls over so quickly compared to a moderate desktop.

Desktops with 4th gen and newer chips however have so much life left in them, so it's an absolute crime that Microsoft's sending them to the metalchipper
