I’m still using my aging Elitebook 8470p. It’s an older model, but I love it, and I’ve put several upgrades into it over the years. I love the durability and the fact that it has an extended 9-cell battery, as well as smaller 14" screen (I have a 27" monitor that I use at my desk, but I prefer not to haul a 15" laptop with me when I take it to meetings, conferences, home, around campus, etc). It’s a good little laptop and still performs extremely well.

Getting a little old, but still more than enough for daily work and a few temporary VMs.
Our department shares an XPS 13 (don’t remember specs off the top of my head, but around as powerful as my desktop) for when one of us needs to be mobile.

HP Elitebook x360 G3
It’s small and light so easy to take to other locations and home and use when I might not have a surface to set it on. At my desk of course I have a dock with 2 24" monitors so the small screen size isn’t an issue in it’s primary location. Been enjoying it quite a bit

Hello @V, thanks for sharing your love for your “aging EliteBook 8470p” and confirming that this fourth generation notebook in the Elitebook series (introduced in 2012) “still performs extremely well.” And thanks for passing on some new information about this beloved model. Being an EliteBook, I knew about its durability but did not know that “it has an extended 9-cell battery”. And I am also loving the shout-outs by the other IT Pros for other HP computers. Thank you … very much.
@The HP P6645y desktop referenced is even older–introduced in 2010–and @Rockn writes, “Works extremely well.”

Daily driver now is a Surface Book 2, i7, 16 gig, 512 SSD. Great device. Have the dock for it.
I just upgraded from a Precision 5510, 16 gig i5 processor 512 gig. I used a Surface Pro 4 for a while alongside the Precision as it was a brick to carry around, the Book 2 was to eliminate 2 devices and get back to 1 again. Also the Surface is my own device, not works, but I use it at work.
Prior to that a Dell Latitude 7480.
Yeah my Elitebook is my personal device too…my work provided device is a Dell Latitude something that I keep in my desk to loan out if I need to keep a computer for repair.

I love Elitebook laptops. I’ve got a 840 G3 that the wife uses and an 8570p (15.6") that I use in my garage for my automotive repair business. It’s been through a lot (knocked off of a work bench several times, had a hood closed on it, water spilled in it, hot chocolate spilled on it, accidentally painted, it’s constantly exposed to the elements, dust and paint fumes, etc). It’s had a new screen, keyboard and an SSD upgrade but it’s still chugging along, fast as ever.

Decent in the RAM department but the processor doesn’t love when I’m running a few VMs and DISM commands for image development. And I feel like the storage is no faster than some of the SATA SSDs I’ve put in. Overall I like it well enough but they’re pretty expensive. I run a mid-spec XPS 13 at home.
Yeah, I don’t have much love for the low-power “u” series Intels for exactly that reason. My Gen 3 i7 3570QM outperformed the 6650u that was in a Surface 4 that I had as a demo unit for a while in real-world testing. For general purposes they’re great, but when you need horsepower they leave a lot to be desired.

Or at least for about an hour when I leave this job (redundancy)…

Only thing that I need to replace is HD with SSD - but I’m lazy.

Currently using a Latitude 7390 (i5, 16Gb RAM, 256gb SSD), and have a MacBook Pro (mid 2010 with an SSD-upgrade).
I miss the box I used in my old job, though. HP zBook 15u G2 with an i7, 16Gb RAM, 512Gb SSD and 3G/4G upgrade. That comp stuck with me for 4 years of VERY heavy use and a lot of abuse (dropped, smashed, having things stacked on top of it, rained on, snowed on, barfed on by a cat (don’t ask), subjected to airbrush-paint and thinners etc).
Good times
