And for comparison (not to cast aspersions at Rahul or what he's seeing,
by any means), here's what I get:

pau-amma[38]% last reboot

wtmp begins Tue Mar  2 18:12:00 1999
pau-amma[39]% uname -a
FreeBSD pau-amma.whistle.com 3.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE #1: Sun Feb 28 07:29:16 PST 1999     dhw@pau-amma.whistle.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/PAU-AMMA  i386
pau-amma[40]% 


Seems to me that one of the lessons is "YMMV".  Mind you, I'm generally
fairly good at breaking things; maybe I happened to get lucky (though I
like to think that during the last 13 months of exposure to FreeBSD,
maybe I've learned enough to be able to configure a system more nearly
appropriately with its intended use than I did at first).

And "pau-amma" is my desktop, which may well account for some of this.

cheers,
david
