Does the phrase "planned obsolescence" mean anything to anybody?

? Theoretically, yes...but the kernel is a relatively small portion of the
code, and individual services (and sometimes even device drivers, network
stacks, etc) can be patched and/or replaced at will without rebooting on most
systems.

Has it had a kernel update ever? Uptime can often mean

How can anybody get amazing uptime, if the suits
and contracts dismantle
"obsolete" four year old systems?
Surely it will be less than 4 years before Apple declares the current
models "obsolete", and the 13,000 iPads need to be replaced.
? Smart people get the amazing uptime.? Sheep, and people who work in
companies whose purchasing agents who get kickbacks from salesmen...they don't.
