Describe a piece of equipment you often use at home or at work. You should say:

One of my most prized possessions is my laptop which I've nicknamed Sophie. It's a 15 inch matte black Alienware laptop with a multicolored keyboard which I use it on a daily basis.
I believe I've had it for about 8 years now; I bought it when I was in college and I needed something with a little more power under the hood to run all the programs I was learning to use. It holds a special place for me as this was the first big purchase that I made with the money I was saving up from my first job.
It's definitely not the same beast it was when I first bought it as I've had to make modifications to it and replace several components as the years have passed, but it still gets the job done. I take it with me to work every day and use on everything from writing scripts, to voiceovers to graphic design. Whatever job needs to be done, it's a sure bet that I'll be using my laptop for it.
Besides my phone, it is one of my main communication tools and I would have a tougher time getting through the day without it. I also use it as my primary entertainment center at home. I use it to watch my favourite TV shows, put the movies up on a big screen to enjoy and even as a music and karaoke device whenever I have people over. Unfortunately, as I mentioned, it's an outdated piece of hardware, so I need to start considering an upgrade as I'm sure I'll need to replace it anytime soon.
Maybe I'll find something a little lighter this time, which is the biggest problem with my current laptop, it is very bulky and heavy. I didn't have too many options when I first purchased it, but now I'm sure I can find something just as powerful and in a lighter package.

I would definitely say so, in the last 20 years we have seen a surge on innovation in computer technology. Computers have gone from a static piece of equipment at home or work to mobile and integral parts of our lives, so much so that we take them for granted until something fails. Computers are now in your phone, in your car, in your appliances at home and in all sorts of devices. It seems every day we see something new being developed to make them faster, smaller and more powerful.

Well I would say that now more than ever it is extremely useful not only for professional development but also for personal reasons. As I said before, everything has a computer now, so knowing even a shred about computers will help you interact with the world more efficiently. Of course not everyone has access to computers so that should be a focus too, how to make it more accessible for everyone.

Televisions would qualify I think. We are on the constant search for entertainment in our downtime and television provides exactly that. With the advent and refinement of smart TVs, as consumers, we now have even more oversight of the content that we consume and how we consume it. That makes people spend more time on their TVs since they have more content online that they can access through it.

Perhaps not an electrical equipment per se, but the internet is a massive platform that allows all sorts of devices to communicate with one another and it has definitely got to a point where it has made the world so much smaller and interconnected. I would argue that, although intangible, it is an indispensable tool that has seeped into almost every moment of our day and you definitely miss when it suddenly does not work.
