Is this really true? Three years sounds very new to me, and no one in their right minds would replace it.

i think a lot of personal users are seeing what corporate does and mirroring them. 3 years is pretty standard for companies to switch their leased/fleet laptops for optimum returns.

there's also the relatively static pricing of these and generally growing wages, making short upgrade times more common.
