Mac SE motherboard is pretty robust, there's only a few axial electrolytic caps on it, and they are not terribly prone to failure, plenty of SE's still running flawlessly on their originals. It's the "aluminum can" SMT capacitors on later macs that are guaranteed to fail those were the real plague.
This statement of RWallmow in a recent thread makes me think, what's the "best" compact Mac system today?, I mean a balance between features/power and durability (flaky caps and such)...
