So is mine :) But the I know 3 other computer (2 friends, 1 costumer
of mime) using the nearly same configuration, the customers machine
has an uptime of 232 days by running overclocked 166MMX->200. Though
they are all running 2.0.35/36 all these systems are stable.
Also interesting may be, that these crashes never happen under heavier
load (like make -j 100 zImage), just when the machine is rather
idle... I will change the cpus with a friend next week, maybe it�s
just some weird intel-feature ...
