It's also possible that it has nothing to do with the vintage of the

laptop. I know that we once had a Dell laptop made around 1998 that

was utterly intolerable to me, yet a 2006 IBM laptop was pretty good...




PUK REPLIES - Maybe it is simply poor EMC design of the product, perhaps as
the manufacterers have had to cater for a larger more product hungry
market they simply cut corners and become more lax with the latter rather like
Toyota whos Ceo admitted that they had in a roundabout way secome to greed
where the high pace turnover of the product outstripped the technical
abilities of thier staff. It could be siad that many of the products such as TVs
pcs, mobiles are slowly killing us, but unfortunately the regulations are
so skewed such harmful effects dont evan touch the sides ! Old computers
may have had the luxury of better and more careful design, modern life is
littered with this phenomenon of short term thinking.
