My 2010 iMac 27 is getting long in the tooth. But I was okay with it until I bought a Mac Pro laptop for on the road use. The speed of the new computer spoiled me. What’s more, I think the old Mac might have a bad internal drive. Spends too much time spinning it now and then. So I ordered an iMac 27 with the 5K Retina display, an i7 4-core 4 gig processor, a 3 terabyte fusion drive and 32 gigs of ram. I’ll use the old iMac as a second monitor and retire my cheapo 23-inch NEC. Came to about 3K with Apple Care. Not bad.
the old iMac could serve as a second display for your laptop; it may have just been short on memory — heavy hard drive activity can often mean it's just using the drive for virtual memory; will also make it seem pretty slow
