I've rebooted a few times to test things when some people have brought up issues that have intrigued me, but this box only gets turned on once a day, and off once a day. Some of those tests will end up waiting until the next day, because I just don't want to be mucked around waiting for a machine to restart. I try and avoid dual-boot, it's a right pain. The Windows/Linux box hasn't been used for months, I don't think I've any need for Windows now, other than to read some old proprietary data, or ancient e-mails. And even that isn't enough to make me put up with its antics. The server never gets turned off, but its uptime keeps on getting ruined by mains problems, recently. It's up to almost 26 days, now. I think the longest I've managed has been a bit over 60 days. I've thought about a UPS, but I don't think I could really be bothered. Unlike Windows, the server hasn't seemed to have fouled itself up by losing power. -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.22.1-41.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5. Today, it's FC7.
