30 years
True, 30 years doesn't seem long for a time capsule, but I do find it interesting that one of Steve's first sentences at the conference was, more or less,
Who here is over 36? So you were born before computers.
Maybe 30 years is long enough for major change and time for reflection. Guess it's all relative.

Going rate for a mouse that is useless with all modern Apple computers is $69.
That's what he said.
The only thing in there that can still be used.

Organizers planned to dig up the cylinder in 2000, but they couldn't find it after a major landscaping project altered the layout of the area. With help from National Geographic and Diggers, the time capsule finally was located last September and brought to the surface.
I was intending to write, as I now see so many others have done, that 30 years is not nearly long enough, and then I read this. 1983 - 2000?! I have got cupboards that see less disturbance in 17 years. And then it took the National Geographic 14 years to find it. What a farce.

Why dig it up so soon? I agree....
The items in this tube really aren't nearly as interesting as they'd be if they were brought back out another 70 to 100 years from now. A 30 year tine-tube? That's about the same as one of my brothers finally cleaning out the closet in the bedroom he used to use at my parent's place!
