Please, please, please keep this discussion off the net!!!
Restrict it to mail!!!!

Every couple of months someone complains about their Mac becoming
obsolete only a {year|coupla months|week} after they bought it.
Then masses of other people jump on the original poster's neck,
saying things like "Don't complain; you {had the use of it for a
while|can still run old software|can upgrade fairly cheaply|have
to pay to stay on top of the technology}."  These discussions run
around in circles and can sometimes become full-blown flame wars.

Please let's extinguish this one quickly!  Net-firefighters of the
world, unite!
