- I know you are speaking from personal experience, but I must say that I often go */weeks/* between
- re-boots on my A3000s and I do use them every day. I do know what you mean about buggy software. I
- remember several times loosing a ftp session in progress because I decided to play with the prog I
- had just got of the AmiNET and completely crashed my system (I wised up). However the OS, I find,
- is stable in the extreme.

- Just my own experience...
