Kind of like Car & Driver when they give you an update on the car a year or two or three from now?
In the case of computer equipment, what time frame would be accurate? One week, one month, six months? What environmental conditions would you test under? For a PC, what peripherals would you test with? What software? Instead, use a benchmarking or load tool with "standard" tests?
I find most of my stability information by scouring message forums. Real world testing from lots of people doing various things that a bench won't uncover.
I've found that stability usually increases with a brand name - not always but usually.
Interesting idea, provided the results are realistic and applicable per the type of device.
