I can only support that! - I have an old 486 with 133 MHz at home, working as
a gateway for me at home. I had it running for the first time with a Linux
kernel version 2.0.30 for about 96 days, when it crashed. - The reason was -
oh, no! - Not Linux! It was a broken CPU-fan! - I used this occasion, put in
a more silent fan for the power supply, as well as another harddisk and
upgraded to 2.0.36. - Since then, I never rebooted the system again. It
currently has an uptime of about 165 days and I expect it to run far longer.
My only fear is a powerfailure or that that bloody CPU-fan will break again.
Can you tell me, what use rebooting is?
At work (where I use Sun workstations) I have three machines (USER-Workstations!
Where there are sitting users at the thing, logging in and out and crashing
their applications all day long ;) ) - and these three machines have an
uptime of far more than 280 days!!!!! (one is over 290 !)
Can anybody please show me *any* NT-User-WS with such uptime?
Regards,
Herbert
