5 years for any laptop is generally pretty good, if not average life expectancy. I see people trying to nurse laptops along for 7+ years and it's just wrong... To a certain extent, it depends on what you do with it (photo editing vs. word editing, surfing vs. rendering, etc.) But personally I wouldn't pay to repair your iBook/Powerbook. It'll be at least $200-300 at a very minimum, unless you can do it yourself (I wouldn't). I usually peg a laptop for having about 3-4 years of good use, after that, it's usually a backup computer.
