I love it.

Windows has its place, but never in a 100% uptime environment.  I have
worked in a few DC's.  Linux / Solaris machines always had uptime in years
as long as the backup power didn't fail.  If we had a Windows issue, the M$
tech always fell back to 'restart' at some point.

I remember being on a call with someone from Redhat, and one of my Windows
colleagues got laughed at when mentioning a restart of the server.  Fun
times.  He just couldn't grasp that concept.
