Why is that important, 30 years? That is expecting a great deal of stagnation in technology. If you said 10 years I'd say that was a long time. Ten years ago we had 486 machines and maybe Pentium I was coming in. The internet was not the domination and your connection to it was dial up for most users. I don't think it is wise to warranty how long something has to last in this industry.
