And also sometimes there is absolutely no need to buy new hardware! I find appalling that we need to upgrade our machines just because software gets more and more resource hungry. My parents as well use old hardware to browse, edit documents and write emails. Back at I home I still run a 10 year old PC with Linux and it just keeps running very well... No need to upgrade! I just think about the golden age of videogames and the software tricks developers came up with to make them run and the hardware those used to run on. Today basically you need to constantly upgrade your GPU if you want to play the latest cool game. Ridiculous.
