It's also a strong hint that it's possible to have machines up and running for such a long time. That's what this whole debate basically is about: less maintenance work and more usage of the machines - and to reach that I (and probably quite a few more than just me) need at least less reboots. It's doable, see Bill Shirley's machines, and yes: it might need quite some work to reach that target - question remains: does anyone care? ... :) Have all a nice Sunday!
