It's all crap. I pretty much treat everything as disposable these days. I got 2 years out of my iPod, and that was it. I never replaced it. If I get 3 years out of a laptop, I'm happy. My last digital camera lasted one year and four months. Luckily Costco still replaced it for free.

Costco's recent change of policy on returning electronics really sucks. They used to have a LIFETIME guarantee on everything! I bought all my electronics there. That was sweet, the digicam stops working after 3 years, you take it back and exchange it for a much better one, brand new, for free.

Too much abuse of the policy (people would return their still working 10 year old TVs, etc), though, and now it's only a 90 day Costco warranty on electronics.
