Salon Magazine has an article disputing the reality of computer obsolescence. Even though they refer to Windows apps, I would claim this is even more true for Linux. I don't plan to upgrade from my trusty AMD K5-133 Mhz any time soon. In fact... the only real bottleneck is the internet.

How often do you upgrade?
