I still use an old Acer laptop from 2008 as my private laptop. It's more than enough for my needs, but apart from it being good enough for my needs, there's not really any particular reason for using that specific machine (apart from the keyboard being amazing). It simply works fine, and I see no reason to replace it.

I don't know why there would be any specific word for it. I just use it.

Nothing will ever beat the T430. Oh the keyboard, the trackpoint, the disabled trackpad...

Have one at work and doing everything I can to avoid the upgrade-bulldozer-team finding me.

Bought many refurbished in perfect state. I plan to hoard them till I die, one every ten year (worst case). Need to up my battery cell expertise level for that...

Heirlooms maybe.

Oh the glee of taking it /by the screen/, to not worry the thing's gonna break...
