Only thing is, I access my bank pretty much daily. To use that would |
| 26 |
require a reboot and booting from USB/DVD etc. I rarely reboot. |
| 27 |
Generally, I reboot when I lose power and have to shutdown. So far, I |
| 28 |
haven't rebooted in 182 days. In a little over a week, I'll have a new |
| 29 |
record. Well, documented record for this rig anyway. |

On my old rig, it had a record of 242 days. Hurricane Katrina ruined |
| 70 |
that. Lost power for a couple days here. So, while a good idea, just |
| 71 |
not likely here. |
