PPC machines are not old enough to run into the capacitor issues most older 68K machines have problems with these days so they are very reliable.

I don't think I have ever seen a bulging capacitor in a Mac of any vintage.

The capacitors I have seen leak, not bulge on old Macs.

Hope my old machines hold out. I guess I could replace them when and if I need to.
