I had hoped to get another 7 years out of this laptop.  But when trying to do zoom video, or video on another zoom-ish platform, my CPU stuff pegged out and the quality went to shit.  

We had a new laptop here that the boots were using (or, more accurately, not using). I tried that and it worked fine.  So I am swapping laptops.

My guess is that new video stuff just needs something that my old laptop didn't have.  Maybe a super duper graphics cards or something.
