Good luck finding modern electronic parts that will be supported for 50 years.

Also, seriously, you see so many people scoffing at the idea of supporting anything for any length of time. It is just the engineering mentality now-a-days; nobody wants to work on anything "old". Can you imagine trying to hire someone to maintain the software/electronics for appliances in 5 years much less 50?



You'll have no problem recruiting the people over 30 who are not interested in the ever changing web dev.
