I just finished refurbishing an aging G5, and while it has some issues overall it has been an absolute workhorse. Especially given its price, not many laptops hold up to nearly 15,000 hours of power-on time between any major maintenance.
Dell batteries also don’t balloon or catch fire when they die, they fail gracefully and just stop holding charge. Too many popped mac and Razer batteries sitting in the battery bins at my local recycler, but they have a whole shelf of used Dell batteries that have a couple more years in them.
