Slightly more often than never. CPU upgrades, too. It's almost never cost-effective to do either, since usually the newer CPUs/motherboards benefit a great deal from all the newer peripherals. I don't upgrade my clients' hardware except in the most unusual circumstances. This is because I have them buy at the best price point, purchasing machines that will have long life (5+ years) without needing an upgrade. Often, these machines end up in use longer than that. But I've never done motherboard or CPU upgrades because I don't consider them cost-effective. -- David W.
