Obviously old hinges are increasing your cost of owning an old Laptop??!!
PS:
We sold laptops in the early 90’s that had better hinges than most modern laptops.
Our new laptop (notebook) cannot be opened by simply lifting the lid, because the laptop is too light, so it lifts the entire laptop instead of opening. So you have to use 2 hands to open it, one to lift the lid, and the other to hold the laptop down.
It sounds like everything about that article is crap!

I 'member when laptops required two hands to open because they had proper locking latches on either side.
Yes and that was actually easier IMO.
