My current laptop is a hand-me-down Samsung R780 from 2011 which used to be running Windows 7.

I've upgraded its battery and changed its HDD to an SSD (it's so easy with these old models!) but kept the 4GB RAM, and I can use it as a daily driver that I effectively got for free. EndeavourOS and Plasma 6, like yours!

Linux makes hardware sustainability and control of one's own PC so much easier!
