FOREVER.... >> Certain equipment may last forever, but the technology may make such advances that the equipment is not desirable after a certain time frame. For example, a personal computer that lasts for 75 years has no attraction. While it may function after 75 years, new PC's will make it obsolete and unattractive after a few years. Other equipment may still be desirable after 75 years. Not much equipment, however, except for value as antiques. I can't think of much in the way of electronic equipment that has a desirable life span of 75 years. Certainly, one would not want to be stuck in the past? Tom Shea
