At the forefront of the hardware refresh are the workstation (both mobile and static) which seem to rotate out on a two to four-year cycle. Personal communication devices like iPhones, Android, the random Blackberry (people still use these?), seem to be on closer to a two-year cycle unless the bowl of rice couldn’t save it from that mishap at the fountain last Saturday.
