I also still use an X200 and only rarely feel the need to upgrade. There are some sites that load a little slow, probably some activities I can't do, but mostly I just get stubborn and paraphrase Office Space: "Why should I change, [this future] is the one that sucks!"

Agree with you on RAM and SSD. My wife had an X200 as well until recently with 4GB, and that was mostly unbearable.

Heh, the only issue I noticed with my X200 is if I am forced to use Zoom, I cannot do anything else on it. Besides that, I can't tell a noticable difference between my x200 and my much more modern Desktop rig.
