It remains to be seen just how long a camera mfr. will offer repair on a
DSLR. I suspect we're not looking at the same timeframe as the K and M
bodies.
With DLSR prices dropping and power increasing, they are quickly going to be
disposable the same as PC's.
I don't expect more than 3 years life out of a PC before it becomes easier
and cheaper to replace as opposed to upgrade.

I'm still running one computer that's at least 7 years old. (Maybe older
depending on which parts you're including...).
Point and shoot cameras are like personal computers. Relatively disposable,
and quickly surpassed on feature/benefit/price.
I think DSLRs can be equated more to mainframes, more capable, and while
quickly surpassed, still eminently functional for a very long time.
