Oh, so do you use a 13 year old PC because a newer one increases your productivity without increasing your salary and paid time off?

I use a 13 year old PC because a newer one will be infected with Windows 11. (The company refuses to migrate to Linux because some of the software they use isn't compatible.)

Personally... I do

I could request a new one, but why? This one works, it's just slow as all hell.
