Good point, but ...

Yup, NT 4. - 6 years without a reinstall...until recently when I took a bug
fix that trashed my networking. Upgrade my bum.

On the other hand, with a REAL operating system, bragging points are
awarded to those with the highest uptime. My personal record, 1.5 years
with an SCO UNIX box. My corporate record 23 years with no unscheduled
downtime, University of Alberta Hospitals Tandem.
