<p>Yeah, I would be interested in hearing about the failure mode,
too if you know it, Mark. I was interested in getting one of
these to handle some odd things that need getting done, probably
the new 8 GB model.<br>

<p>10 years used to be nearly unheard of for retail machines with
moving parts. When nothing is moving, then supposedly there is
nothing to burn out. I have a laptop from 2000 that I replaced
the disk with an SSD and it still boots fine (great for regression
testing. Another two date from before 2010 and have SSD's; no
problems there, either.<br>

The Raspberry Pi that I have been using for at least 10
years to run the hecnet bridge has finally died so I need
to setup a new one.<br>
