%dayjob% starts cycling out at 3 years and very few make it past 4.  Org of 500+

%nightjob% I do 5 year cycle for the bigger client (55PC's) with some systems 
going to 6 (infrequent use role-assigned PC's).

In both cases the "newest of the old" are kept as immediate replacement 
stand-ins for KIA systems.

How long do you folks keep PCs and laptops in your organizations?

4? 5? 6 years?

My oldest are a few from 2006.

I am thinking I should start replacing after they hit 5 years (4 years if heavy 
user/issues).

I know it will depend on the business environment...I'm just trying to get some 
idea as to what others do.

Thx
