Get in! I'm excited...
Me too!
You know my feelings on disc vs cantis though...
Don't worry about it, I'm considering, for the future, to have a spare forks with disc. Either carbon, if I can find some that look OK with a steel 1-1/8 headtube, or steel ones...
I personally have no use for disc considering the usage of my bike(s). Last month I visited my cousin in the Swiss Alps. I took his Commencal hybrid-ish bike for a ride in nice forest / rocky pathes, some fairly steep downhill bits. That was the first time in my life I felt that disc were useful. His's were hydraulics in this instance.

In the olden days, spokes would break pretty frequently. Modern stainless steels have basically eliminated that.
In the olden days, hub bearing cups would wear out. Cartridge bearings have basically made hubs last a lifetime.
In the olden days, brake wear would destroy rims. If only somebody would come up with a solution to that, we could have wheels which would last almost forever.
