Will I be able to use my laptop until 2020?

I have a 2014 Samsung ATIV Book 8. I want to use my laptop untill 2020. I use my laptop for only web browsing, watching videos through the internet, and creating documents. My laptop would be able to do these tasks even in 2020, but the thing i'm worried about is the damage caused to the laptop. I accidentally cracked the bottom shell of the laptop a little bit when I took the laptop apart, the laptop is missing a few keys, laptop is very scratched, and the bezel has folded marks for no reason. Can I use my laptop until 2020?

DUE TO MANY REQUESTS I HAVE LEFT THIS FORUM FOREVER.

If you have been this hard on it already, I see no reason you wouldnt be this hard on it for the next 3 years. I find it difficult to imagine in my mind it being able to survive that long in your hands.

Install Linux at that point.

138 is a good number.

Why? If you're just browsing around, lubuntu is pretty good against windows for performance.

In South korea we use 'hancom hangul' instead of office word to create documents, and Linux isn't compatible with Hancom. And In south korea the school tells which fonts to use for the document, and linux isn't compatible with the fonts that the school requires us to use. Also, I find Wine to be buggy sometimes. 

I will never use Linux. Don't say anything about linux.

VengeanceGamer, another dumb post about using your laptop for a few more years?  You already started several posts about using your laptop for seven or more years because your mom won't let you buy a new one and you want to kill yourself.
