I think there are a lot of things one can do that can have the side effect of pushing the boundaries of hardware (this includes things like compression). Not to mention things like SSD where you are explicitly trading lifetime for performance. Searching for reasons to believe it's just to drive obsolescence isn't particularly fruitful, unless you consider paranoia an end in itself. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allber...@gmail.com ballb...@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
