The laptop I am using now is four years old and has a core 2 duo 1.66GHZ processor. Plus it is having a RAM of 1 GB and 120 GB harddisk. I purchased it while joining college 4 years back and is working fine till now but I am now thinking to buy a core i 7 processor based laptop for gaming..... Have a nice day!

Oh my, I would never have been able to keep a computer that long. For one thing I have no real talent when it comes to upgrading them or adding a new motherboard, etc. Then even after 3-4 years mine usually still gets some sort of nasty virus, etc even with an anti-virus so I end up buying a new ones. :( Bad I know. This one I;m using now is only 4 months old.

3-4 years is actually normal in today's computer usage. Btw now i'm using a new one with 4 cores AMD... but the old one is still usable too...

I'm using right now my notebook that bought last year, so it's 7 or 8 months old only I don't remember. It has an i7 processor, 4 GB RAM, 640 GB HD and a GeForce 330 video card with 1 GB, it's really a very good machine. But believe it or not, there are a couple or newer models with superior specs right after I bought it. It ages out very fast.

thank's for commenting... yes it ages out very fast... i think if a person is addicted to games they should really buy ps3 or xbox because it doesn't ages out as quickly as computer...

The computer I am using was purchased in the year of 2003. It was then used solely by my daughter. But after her marriage in 2007, I am using it.

Mine is almost 4 years already. My parents bought it when I have to do my thesis. It has a 1GB memory, Pentium D, 2 80GB HDD, ECS motherboard. Well I have plans on upgrading it like adding storage space, memory, video card and other things that could improve it's performance.
