I have a problem…. they say the first step to getting help is to admit you have a problem. I do!
I have a hoarding mentality and because of this, I have several collections. Dice/Cards/Books/Cups and many other things. So tech is something that didn’t escape. In my office, I have 3 desks now. The newest is a small desk that I got for my laptops, one 24″ monitor on an arm so that I can connect my Laptop to a bigger screen.
When it comes to laptops I have 5 on the go now… yes that’s right, 5!
- Gaming Laptop – This has now been repurposed for work as it is powerful and so will make my work life better.
- MacBook Pro (2011) – This was getting very slow but I just installed Ubuntu 24 on it and now it is a nippy little Linux machine.
- Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G2 ITIL – This is Windows 11 home and is the main machine I am using at the moment for normal use.
- Lenovo T480 – This was the laptop I got for Dev work, it has Linux Ubuntu 24 on it
- ChromeBook – This is a general machine that is light and easy to lug around, great for tech or writing.
As you can see I have issues, we ll They are not causing me any issues but when people see the tech I have they assume I have a problem. 🙂
Sometimes it can be a form of procrastination to just decide which device to use in my office. But hey, I could have worse problems.
A few days now until I goto Fantasycon 2024, looking forward to this event. Maybe I will take a laptop or two 🙂
