OK, OK, I just don't like to give anything a perfect rating. I
probably should have gone 1-20 and then I could have been more
accurate. OK here I go 1-20:
UNIX (in general) 19 (reboot very seldom)
OS/2 16 (reboot every week or two)
NT 13 (reboot every few days)
Win95 8 (reboot daily)
Win3.1 3 (reboot 3-4 times a day)
