I have probably 15 programs open all the time.

Says it was made July 2011.

Just want to know if this thing is actually old before I ask for them to upgrade.

Right now I want to punch it right in the computer dick.
There's your issue. If you can't get them to give you a full upgrade, at least see if they can bump up the RAM to 4GB. That's the maximum amount of RAM a 32-bit OS can handle, which I'm guessing is your office standard especially if you're stuck using some crap legacy software
