Or is this the up-time of a single box?? -----Original Message----- From: Pedro Timoteo [mailto:deh@meganet.pt] Sent: Friday, April 20, 2001 10:30 AM To: advocacy@freebsd.org Subject: Re: top uptime!

Also (it's funny to reply to my own message), for a FreeBSD to have an uptime greater than 1000 days, it's got to be an early 2.x. So, this list shows nothing about the stability of 3.x or 4.x. I'm not *doubting* it's great, but we'll only have "proof" when in 3 or 4 years there are some 4.xs still running.
