Both my mom and dad use Lenovo W series laptops. I'm not sure of the specs, but they are the recent models, and knowing my dad, they have SSDs.

My sister use a 2014 Macbook Pro

My grandparents use a somewhat old cutome build PC- It fits their usage scenario perfectly.

My wife use a dual CPU x58 system (soon to be upgraded to x99) with some old Firepro cards.

Managed to convince my mom not to dump 2k on an imac. She only needs to do internet browsing and office work. Luckily best buy was selling a  23-inch touch screen Lenovo all-in-one with an AMD A8 APU, 8GB Ram, and 500GB HDD for about 600$.
You guys think this was the right choice? I put alot of trust into AMD quad core APUs within the 500-600$ range when it comes to prebuilts. For her work load, I think this will be pretty future proof.

They have terrible Aspire One notebooks that struggle with literally everything.  I think they are from '07, maybe '09.

Mom I don't know.

My younger kid has a 3770k with a 7870hd on a maximus v formula

My older kid has a 4770k on a maximus vi formula with a 7870hd

Those were my both my pc that got handed down to them. Hey I pay the bills I get the new stuff.

Wife has a viao laptop

WTF is new stuff for you? Dual 18 core xeons with 256 GB of ram?

 

Those computers are not what I would call old. Not unless they lack flash storage, in which case they will perform as well as an old computer when booting up and loading programs.

Dad: An Asus laptop with a Sandy Bridge pentium (I think) and 8Gb of RAM. I think he plans to upgrade soon because it's having heating issues.

Mom: pre-built desktop with an AMD a4-3300 APU, 4Gb of RAM, integrated graphics... 

Brother, other brother, sister: pre-built desktop with AMD a4-3400 APU, 4Gb of RAM, integrated graphics. My little brother plays LoL mostly and it's fine.

Me: I use my older brothers desktop (above) because mine is dead... He barely uses it anyway :)

I bought my wife a MacBook Pro for Christmas in 2013, I don't even know what model it was, I don't know the differences in those things. Ugh, my family says I must really love her because they NEVER thought I'd ever buy an Apple computer. 

 

She loves it though, don't know why....

Obviously some people have multiple machines, but these are what I'd call each person's "main" machine:

 

Me: i5 4590, 8GB RAM, R9 285, 128GB SSD + ~600GB HDD I had lying around (600GB is plenty, because NAS)

Sister: i3 Laptop circa ~2010, 4GB RAM, some random Nvidia mobile GPU, 128GB SSD (facebook/email machine)

Other sister: AMD Turion I believe.... that's all I know and I think that says it all. Her phone is probably faster and she doesn't have fixed line 'nets

Brother: All I know is that it's an LGA 775 Pentium with ~3GB DDR2. No GPU, I did put an SSD in there. Only used for downloading stuff and putting it on his NAS

Mum: an iPad 3

Niece: Actually has a laptop that somehow has an i5 in it. Probably about a couple of years old, no idea what GPU. Has a couple of games on steam she plays on it

Fools think they know everything, experts know they know nothing

Mom and younger sister were using my old PC (P4 + 3 GB RAM + 5750 HD), but since P4/motherboard died, its my PC only at home.

 

Now even my sister sticks with Nexus 7 more than PC, with PC being used by me only over weekends

Finally got PS4 Pro

I've personally found them to be quite durable, had one survive 5 years of getting beaten about at school with nothing going wrong/breaking.
