General question - How old is your laptop? How long do you use your laptop as your main machine?
I currently have a samsung laptop that's coming up on 3 years old. Its starting to show a bit of wear and tear in places and the DVD drive has got a bit intermittent, but the apu+discrete graphics are still capable of everything I need. I just bought a surface pro 3 (which has died after 2 months) so found myself back on the old laptop. If I hadn't bought the surface I guess I'd probably be happy using this for the next couple of years before it started showing problems with games.

This made interesting reading, so I thought I'd see what other people thought.
