That would never have happended with VI :-)
But, of course, VI is NOT a GUI RAD dev tool :)

That's what I surmized, but I didn't know you could turn it off and get the 'beloved' BSOD back! It's amazing, in a negative way, to see your PC setting there, with no user tasks running, and then sudden reboot... JLK

The phantom reboots are instead of the BSOD. There is an option to turn it off which puts your right back to those blue screens.

True! Last September, at work, I set up a DELL 200MHz box with two HDs, using SuSE 6.4. It has been running 24/7 every since then and is only booted because the network folks want to run Nortens Ghost to back it up every so often. It has NEVER crashed, or even hiccupped!! The net fols KNOW IT, TOO. The box is right across from the network admins cubical. He sees it every day. And, he and his crew are repairing Win2000s every day too. It's got to be eating at him... He used to razz me a lot about Linux, sometimes mockingly, but that has stopped completely!
