You clearly have been using Microsoft Windows (NT/9x) to much. that Microsoft OS does need regular re-boots, but there is no reason to re-boot a Linux system just to re-boot it. I can understand turning it off when you aren't there without a UPS, but when you get a UPS, just leave it up 24/7. There is "almost" nothing that a re-boot can fix that cant be fixed by using other tools like ifconfig, etc... It is not uncommon to see uptimes well in excess of 70 days. I have heard of Linux 1.2.x systems staying up for longer then a year ( and by this time, this might include 2.0.x systems also)
See you
