Contrary to the opinion of the average dolt sales droid at Best Buy, there's plenty of serviceable life left in older hardware. How many hard drive failures have you experienced?

We have a 7-year-old laptop (boat anchor running Linux now, for hobbitt's amusement).
My laptop is 5 months old, and the mini came at the same time.
The "guest" laptop is less than 2 years old.
hobbitt's desktop is from the great Dell explosion in our front hall from the summer of 2004 (we ordered 4 Dells with flat-panel monitors, 2 for our nephews and one for my cousin, and three of them came with printers). Holy carp that was a helluva lotta boxes....I'm sure the FEDEX guy thought we were insane....

If I was home the one I'm typing one would be the youngest at a year and a half, but it really isn't mine. Neither is the desktop (~7 years and still kicking ass) but the house laptop is ours (9 years) as is the house desktop (~10 years) and the server (4 years or so).
