Ignoring the fact that I *have* actually had such an experience, it's
a hyperbole. :) The point is, even if you DO experience some sort of
catasrophic failure of an older system, replacing it outright is cheap,
and the performance will be vastly superior.
[Actually the system in question was quite repairable, but the cost of
repairs would have been similar enough to buying a new system that the
new system was a better option. Same difference.]
