:-)  Well.. the that's not consistent with truth though.  I've thrown away may 
WRT54GL (and/or other variants) over the years.  They are cheap devices... and 
IMHO, they got a bit cheaper after they were rebranded (cough).

As a cheap device though, they do have value.. just don't expect 8 years of 
operation...  They should last at least 3 years IMHO.
