Does anyone know how long the original Macs have lasted before their
failure rates start going up the far side of the bathtub curve?

I got my 128K Mac in July of '84, as soon as my university got them in.
It's gone through about 2 years of heavy use and 1 1/2 years of light
use (with the heavy and light years interspersed).  So far I haven't had
a single hardware problem.  I did have it upgraded to 512K in August of
this year.
