Woohoo!!!

[Kevin Brown]

My current NT workstation has an uptime of 380 hours (15 days).  I use it for
various tasks, Office Suite, 3D Animation (Lightwave), DVD playing, surfing the
Net, etc...  Only the DVD has caused the system to crash forcing a reboot.  Of
course I have never even gotten to a 1 month uptime.
