Rather, you should think about your poor hw. It's nice to sit down at least once
a year, to clean up your box of that spider/ant feudalistic colonies, bug
airports, to check connectors, upgrade some components, and other such things

some x86s which wasn't projected to even LAST as long as one year :-)
