Mine... My Xbox 360 slim only costed 129 euro back in 2012 and to this day still work like brand new, you would think that the disc drive would stop working but no. Never had the need of open it or clean it's insides. Still great, I just don't use it anymore since I feel it's outdated and loading speeds are better nowadays.

My wife did a cert class for data analytics and needed a work horse laptop. I bought her a used i7 Thinkpad from eBay.

It's so damn fast.. m2 drive 32 GB of ram it's literally only limited in speed by the user input.

Just an amazing deal for $450

Edit it was a t14 gen 2.

I just got mine a few weeks ago and it's so impressive. I bought it used for $150 and I can tell I'll be using this for years.

I juuuust retired a t420s recently.. off lease computers are absolutely the way to go for buying new to you laptops.

Toss in a SSD and a Linux distro.. and you're good for 6-8 years imho
