I guess you haven't been around for the occasional "uptime wars" in
FreeBSD-chat, huh?  Some of the uptimes reported there are pretty
remarkable, I've seen a few above 400 days.  No, the crashing generally
isn't a hardware problem.  ;^)

I have to call GSTek and order some IPXs today.  Then I have to
go find some disk drives for them.  This should be fun...
