Re: "a collection of kit that's now two years old"
I'd look at it another way. It means there will be a lot of decently specced business hardware entering the refurbished market when that upgrade cycle starts, which will be good for the savvy amongst us.
I might even finally decide to replace the 19 year old Dell Inspiron laptop I gave the kids. They're 5 and coming up to 3, so an air gapped laptop with Puppy Linux has been good enough for them to use with some basic typing and drawing apps. I'm starting to lose them to Youtube and Netflix now though...
