    My 2014 Toshiba i7 still chugs along. Technically it’s two laptops in one as the first one if it was rebooted while hot the GPU would go all 1024x768 in the top left corner. The replacement mainboard I got ended up being an AMD one but if I enable the AMD chip in device manager it simply dies so it uses the onboard Intel HD graphics instead.

    1GB SSD, plus 2GB HDD in an optical bay adapter.

    It’s on its third battery - works for about an hour but jumps to 7% within a minute of running on battery, so if I put it to sleep etc it won’t go again without power.
