I have a Toshiba laptop that I bought 10 years ago and it still works great! No complaints. The only thing I ever needed to replace was the battery. I guess the only real issue now is that it's not as fast as newer computers and also uses ages old graphics technology. Probably no good at all for today's games, but it used the Internet fine. Oh, and my backspace button fell off. I consider that more to be due to improper use. Back in the day my niece used to use that laptop a lot and whenever she deleted anything she would tap backspace for each individual character, instead of just pressing it once and holding it down, and as you can probably imagine, the key eventually fell off from all the wear & tear on it.
