which is pretty amazing. What would you do if you had a computer with
a ridiculously long uptime that had outlived its usefulness? Would you
retire it or keep it running in a corner for novelty's sake.

/me pictures the Seinfeld episode where George tries to get the
frogger machine home without unplugging it - there was some
unbelievable uptime!
