So an issue I've ran into in pursuit of fast lane success is that of aging tech in the household. We all have tablets we use for various purposes, and I admittedly use mine as a mouse pad more often than not. I have the only computer which is an aging desktop that I built some 6-7 years ago.

Problem is with all the improvement in information presented online I find my current machine inadequate for my needs. It has started crashing more frequently and struggles under the load of some sites/applications that I use or need to use.

So question time. What kind of equipment are you guys using to run your businesses? What are some good investments or waste of money? Desktop, laptop or both? Any programs/equipment that are must for saving time, productivity, overall value? What are things you could not see operating your business without?

I know businesses and owners vary, but I just wanted to pose this question to see what others are using or doing. Thanks in advance.
