I guess the question then is how many parts did you have to replace for each of those computers? Did repairs/upgradeability factor into the long lifetimes?

- gamache 14y agoUpgrades: The SE/30 started its life as an SE, so it got the 68030+SuperDrive upgrade, and we put a monitor card in the expansion slot (which I later replaced with a 10BaseT card). Upped the RAM from 1MB to an intimidating 8MB. I think I stuck some RAM in the Lombard and the iBook too. Repairs: invoked AppleCare once, two years in, when my iBook took a nasty fall off a table. Apple makes sealed machines with bizarro, non-standard components inside, but by no means are they treated as disposable.
