Only about 8 users.

As for the reliability, well I have had one on 24/7 test since the day 
they hit perth and DMA got one in stock. I have 4 of them in service in 
the field and have not hit the slightest snag yet. They are pretty new 
so time will tell I guess.
On my test unit, I have even taken the fan off the cpu.It runs at about 
a 30% cpu load and has done since day one.

They appear to be pretty well built, and run quite cool so I don't 
expect too many early failures.
