Explain your plan
[edit]Tell us about how you contribute currently, and how you would contribute if WMF were to gift a used laptop to you.
I have been contributing to Wiki projects since 2010 using my personal laptop. My laptop has become old, damaged and very slow due to software issues and non supportive hardware. It is not supporting to use many advanced tools and features also. I would like to use gifted laptop to continue my contribution more effectively. It saves time and enable me to use different advanced tools as well. I am an active contributor in various Wiki projects and Wiki movement. So, it will boost my interest and increase productivity too. If I could buy my own new personal laptop, I will dedicate the gifted laptop to Wiki movement activities like trainings, outreach, workshops etc., with continued contribution to Wiki projects.
