It's like anything else, respect the equipment and it should respect you back. A friend had an Acer that was still chugging along 4 years later. OS was shredded, but hardware was still pristine. The last pre-built I bought was an HP and the hardware never let me down before I gave it away 3 years later.

Some companies will inherently have better products than others but overall most should last you a while if you take care of it. Just so many people don't know how to maintain computers and they end up buying a new one every year or so because they fill it up with junk and viruses that slow it down.

On a somewhat related note: HP makes printers that are the devil's spawn, but their computers are fine.

My HP printer only lasted a few years before it broke. Wasn't very impressed to be honest. It was a good printer and all, but it was just didn't last very long.
