I find 10 years is a good number. I also try to do as well with cars, but I've
had better luck with computers. I finally sold my CP/M box when I bought my
Amiga 3000. My 5 year old Amiga 1000 is still in use, as is my 8 year old
Atari 800 (actually, it's the second one: my brother in law is using the first
one).

If you choose your software wisely, you're not locked into one brand of
software.
