I do know the definition and in my scenario the computer is owned by me but laboured on by somebody else. My question is, at what point do they have the right to lay claim to it? Is it only if I don't use it at all? Or do they simply need to use it more than me? And for how long a period?

personal property is property labored on by one and owned by somebody else personal property is stuff you use.

"personal property is property labored on by one and owned by somebody else personal property is stuff you use."

I certainly don't accept your convoluted and made up definition. Personal = private
