I'm *very* impressed by the 30 day uptime here. Not that Linux won't do it
(in the UK, my Linux box was usually up for 6 months or thereabouts), but
the mains doesn't seem to support it. I know that I've bitched about
Western Power before, but the last couple of weeks have just reinforced by
concerns. 3 hours without power 10 days or so ago!
