What to Do with Old IT Equipment After an Office Move

AI-generated summary
For £938 ex‑VAT, the ASUS ExpertBook B5 is a pretty sensible “business main machine” choice, especially if you care about reliability and a clean Windows Pro rollout for a small team or a single heavy user. The Core Ultra 7 class chip and modern connectivity (Wi‑Fi 7) mean it’ll feel quick in everyday office work, decent multitasking, and lots of browser/tab/Teams activity without turning sluggish. It’s also the kind of spec balance that tends to suit procurement well: not flashy, but enough headroom that you’re less likely to regret it after 12–18 months.
That said, I wouldn’t buy it blindly if your priority is maximum value-per-seat across lots of staff. On a budget, you might find cheaper laptops that feel “fast enough” for the same tasks, and the ExpertBook line can cost a bit for build quality/management features rather than raw performance. If you’re buying for designers/devs doing sustained heavy workloads, you should also sanity-check the real-world cooling and whether you expect long performance bursts—Ultras can be great, but laptops vary in how consistently they hold performance under load. Overall: good for business users who want a dependable everyday laptop with modern wireless, but not the best deal if you just need basic office machines and want to shave cost hard.
