In response to someone having a reliable Macintosh:

	My experience has been just the opposite. I use most of the
various models in the macintosh lineup from the plus in the
lower-division labs here up to a IIci running A/UX, and I find myself
restarting those machines far more often than my GS at home. For
example, I'm writing this right now from home and I haven't rebooted
my machine in weeks (I have a screen saver installed and never
shutdown the system. I do have to keep the cover cracked open or my
keyboard glu chip overheats. Is this fixed in the ROM 04 machine yet
:-)
