    The problem is they never need new batteries and there is no off switch!
    On/Off switch:

    I do not personally use Kubuntu, but I'm the tech support for my daughter who does.

        Up until recently, a floppy drive, but after the recent case switch over, I left it out, so that leaves a 10 or so years old Brother printer.

          I had the same thing here (in fact i still that FDD sitting around unused right now, but the oldest thing I use is a HP Photosmart 7760 that works just fine.(once I have the right packages installed)

            My current laptop is 7 years old. I know it's not really 'old' old, but it's impressive that it still (just) works, considering the average lifespan of Mac computers...
            About 5 years ago I had a Powerbook that was over 10 years old, still worked great. It died though.
            Probably the oldest piece of hardware in my house is a tiny little Duo Dock - from the 90s (estimated at 1995? it's not mine, so I don't really know it's history.) A few years ago I actually managed to turn it on, and it was all in black and white, omg. Since then I've tried several times to boot it but sadly, it appears to have died completely. I still hope to be able to boot it again some day, it's just so adorable. It has 10 mb of storage. 10 MB.
