My 30-month old Fujitsu laptop has been getting progressively worse and worse. It overheats if you use it too much, and the touchpad seems to be developing dementia. After it crashed 3 times in 10 minutes yesterday morning whilst I was trying to work from home I gave up and ordered a replacement.

I’m now the owner of a new Lenovo 3000 N200 which seems very nice so far. The keyboard is the best I’ve ever used on a laptop although the bottom-left CTRL key is in the wrong place which is irritating, and the rest of it seems nice and sturdy. After a couple of hours work I’ve updated the software, added the various bits I need, and removed most of the cruft that comes pre-installed. All it needs now is another 2GB of memory.
