    Make the switch...

    ...to Linux. Today, I'm celebrating my 40th day of continuous uptime on my desktop, with no signs of trouble. (I know, it's not that much, and I could go a great deal longer)
    I can really recommend it to anyone who wants to live a crashless life.

          I'm have RedHat 8 now for my normal desktop, and setup of everything was easier than with windows.

              Well we had a Windows 2000 server windows 2000 pro network, and the uptime was last week 189 days.

              So windows can be good as well

                  That's a server. This is a desktop, running all kinds of shit.

                  (my personal server, running debian, has not had downtime yet, except for downtime caused by physically moving the thing)

                      I think there is a world market for maybe five computers.

                          did you write down when you restarted it? win2k resets its ticks after i think 7 weeks... so after 49 days it would appear you just restarted
