Electronics are simply going to fail no matter if you
use them or not.
Most electronic components simply can't last forever.
Preciisely my point. Storing it and never running it will _not_ allow it
to last for ever. In fact you might well find that when it is turned on
sometime in the future, it deosn't run, and can't be made ot run again.
In which case you might as well have run it now and had some use out of it.
