Hi, 1. My main 'production' computer is a workstation, HP xw8400 with xeon processors, from 2007-2008. I got it second-hand around 3 years ago and it serves me well. 2. I have a 'new' Toshiba laptop with Intel i5 from 2013, but I use it mainly to test that things work with new versions of various operating systems (including Windows) with and without UEFI. 3. And I have several older computers that I also use to test that things work with new versions of various linux distros. My oldest computer is a Compaq desktop with a Pentium II at 400 MHz with 192 MB RAM.
