Hi Brian,
Close but not quite an oxymoron. It's 18 months old which is about 3.5
years in dog years. :) I use the MacBook for S/W development and it
gets heavily exercised for that and other things. I expect my laptops
to last about 36 months as a primary machine (if I am lucky).
After all, it is on it's 3rd HD (keep on running out space storing
images), 2nd LCD and now the slot drive is a bit flakey.
Laptops just get more abuse than desktops...
Regards,
Spencer
