You have to remember he didn't say stuff like that until it stop putting money in his pocket.
I think the component failure point is what he was referring to, or maybe that no MPC magic he talks about?

Didn't you have a 60, did you get rid of it?
The problem you face is how much of a real investment is reasonable on the ASQ.
It's getting to the point where the age is gonna continue to make things fail and at some point it could turn into something unrepairable.
I happens as gear gets older, I guess that's why many of us who still use ASRs have 3 or more of them.
Maybe contact Forat to see what he thinks about the overall aspect of repair and reliability of a ASQ in 2014.
That could at least give you some point of view on investment.
