Re: [changed to] Why stability is secondary to some c- ompanies

Oh Please …

And someone has heard of a DOS machine that never had to re-booted and is
still running today, and someone else never rebooted VMS and someone else
ran NT 4.0 for 5 years with nary a boot and my 2000 box has been up solid
for 3 years …

Is that a measure of stability or what you’re NOT doing?

I just heard of a Linux box who’s been up for one year nonstop.

Actually, they use VMS or Tandem for true stability.

I hate to say it, but feel an OS that the majority of people base their
computing infrastructure on should NOT be controlled by a public
for-profit
corporation, because of exactly this conflict between what’s technically
best and what’s financially best short term for the company.

This is why people use FreeBSD if they really need stability.
