My office Amiga has run for weeks on end without crashing.  The OS itself
is sold, as are finished applications.  The memory management is missed
of course during program development and when running early beta copies
of software, since a program bug can crash the machine.  Of course, a
program bug can crash any machine.  The one at home crashes regularly
when I'm running programs I've written, at least until they're 
(hopefully) debugged.  But Lattice C is much to slow in compiling for
me to crash it, even with the worst of my programs, every ten minutes
:-).
