It was a high-spec machine, and it ran very well. It also has the latest versions of PhpStorm and DataGrip.Īt the time when my dad bought me this laptop, it was very popular. Currently, I have six tabs open, and I have yet to experience any major slowdown to date. I’m using the latest version of Google Chrome. I’ve installed a brand new battery, but so far that’s the only hardware upgrade. It has a Core 2 Duo processor, with two cores at 2.0GHz. However, I’m now writing with a 2009 Acer Aspire 5735. Wouldn’t even touch it with a barge pole. I booted up my 2008 MacBook a few weeks ago, and it refused to install Chrome. They are too slow to use and new software cannot be installed on them. There’s more to life than the computer you use.īut the planned obsolescence means that people needlessly throw away old Macs and Windows machines. It’s foolish to stick to either of these operating systems. I consider myself a Windows power user.īeware of fanboyhood. And I love how fast my Windows 10 machine operates, and I’ve used Windows since I was seven years old. I love the care taken to enhance the usability of my Mac. Many users have complained that El Capitan and Sierra drain more resources after they have upgraded their Mac’s operating systems. The new MacBook Pros are slower than many machines that are a third of the price. Microsoft’s goal to have a universal OS across desktops, tablets, and mobile devices has encouraged them to cater to machines with lower specs.īut I’m not sure if Apple has that same goal. Windows 10 has been better on this front. Apps get more complex as they adapt to the demands for more user-friendly features. The Windows and macOS operating systems make systems run slower over time. Note that if you do not enjoy tinkering, desktop Linux might not be the best operating system for you. Never used Linux? It’s a lot of fun, as long as you’re willing to learn and to tinker. Got an old computer that is too slow to run Windows? Don’t throw it away or sell it.
