Not to mention there's VMS clusters with 20+ years of uptime. The systems, especially Alphas, were so reliable that at least one sysadmin forgot how to restart them and had to consult the manual lol. I wish they made a good desktop. I'd have used it and probably lost less work. ;)
Notice how "all systems crashed" from heat except the AlphaServer. That's great engineering, right there. It's why I wish they were still around outside eBay. That plus PALmode: most benefits of microprogramming without knowing microprogramming. :)
