My Monochrome 8MHz IBM AT has lasted 32 years. Of course I've upgraded/replaced the hard drive(s) a dozen or so times, the mother board a half dozen times, the case 4 or 5 times, the power supply a half-dozen times, the video card 3-4 times, and the monitor 4 times. It's also been through a half-dozen or so different brands of Linux starting with Yggdrasil in 1992. [Before that it ran the Mark Williams Coherent v7 Unix clone.] The original keyboard is still going strong! -- Grant Edwards grant.b.edwards Yow! Should I get locked at in the PRINCICAL'S gmail.com OFFICE today -- or have a VASECTOMY??
