Some people say the stupidest things. My one Windows machine stays up for months on end. The other (the laptop) is on as needed (usually 8-10 hours per day). The other is off for weeks on end. My Linux machine gets reset regularly - at least once a week. FWIW, my primary desktop just needed a new power supply. A transistor blew after 5+ years of being on almost continuously. Anybody out there ever hear of "inrush current" and the damage it does?!?!?!
