For general purpose use, such as web browsing, email, and casual games, a computer should not need to be replaced for four or five years. In addition, certain components like a video card and monitor can be individually replaced/upgraded (if so desired), rather than buying a whole new computer.
Groceries, clothes, a computer, a car, and a cell phone all become outdated soon after purchasing them.
A computer being outdated is more a matter of feeling then a matter of knowledge. Example: If you buy a computer because you want to play the fastest and the hottest games on earth and you need real computer and graphics power.. your computer will be outdated in half a year to a year at most. Because gaming and graphics is one of the most heavy software you can run on a PC. BUT if you need your computer to browse on the internet, do you financial things, play with photos (no heavy editing) and talk to your friends on MSN or other Instant Messagers you can last at least 3 - 5 years with your computer before it really isn't "usable" anymore. So the first question to you would be:"What are you planning to do with it.
Computer use continues to grow as more and more people rely on them for business and recreation. This trend isn't going to go away any time soon. Since the only thing that can replace a computer is a more advanced computer, both the hardware and software industries will continue to flourish.
You can get hardware and software support and how to guides at rapidbyte.org the rapisshare forum - just go to the hardware and software section and look there if you still cant delete msn then ask a member of staff to help you - rapidbyte will soon have msn deleted off your computer!
Not yet, but there probably will be soon. If there is one, then forgive me, this might be outdated.
Bill Gates made a deeal with IBM to license the DOS (disk oprerating system) on every computer IBM. IBM thought that the money was in the hardware. But as profit margins fell on the hardware it turned out that Gates made the right choice. Pretty soon he had the rights to sell the operating system on every IBM compatible computer.
It depends on when you do a burn-in test. If you do it as soon as you build a new computer, then backups are not necessary, since you didn't put anything on there worth saving yet. But the reason you should do backups would be if you ran such a test on a computer which has valuable data on it. Such testing can push the hardware over the edge, and then you won't have access to your data.

Sadly there is no program out there to tell you if there is a hardware problem with your computer. However, to keep you computers in optimal running condition, make sure you install a virus scanner program, a malware protection program, and run a registry cleaner at least once a week to make sure your computer runs smooth and no one is trying to compromise your computer's software/hardware. In addition, make sure you clean your computer at least once a month with canned air and keep the computers in a cool place so they don't overheat. With those steps, it should help ensure that your computers don't break down any time soon.
Soon, computer.
As soon as the first electronic computer was built, it needed repair. that was the start of computer repairs.
As Apple tries to refresh every hardware they sell about every 18 months, if it ain't out now it soon will be, KO!
