Doesn't your Windoz box have to reboot for updates from time to time? Mine
does. While mine hasn't crashed in over a year, I certainly see it's
restarted after a major update.

Likewise. WinXP sp2 running on a "several years old" HP Pentium4 running at
a snail's pace of 2.53ghz and limping along with 1 gb memory. But it gets me
by, and stays running 24/7 hardly ever being rebooted. From time to time I
do some disk maintenance and cleanup, that's about it. XP has been very
stable on this machine.
