Acer TravelMate 800
When my old HP Laptop quit service (due to non-working NIC and generally being outdated), I got this one. 15“ high-res screen, decently-sized harddisk, rather powerful CPU, sufficient RAM (later upgraded), this machine was a huge improvement, and a rival to my then-desktop (Athlon800). I'd still be using it, if it weren't for the connector from the power supply that's got loose. The battery won't charge anymore, and if you nudge the cable of the PSU, you'll lose electricity.
