I once read that it's good practice to reboot Linux even if you don't
HAVE to: because in two years when you do have to reboot, you won't
remember what you misinstalled and why it doesn't boot happily now.

That said, I had an ethernet port die on a web server here yesterday. 
I didn't want to reboot, I just swapped ports.   The machine was
installed on July 2nd 2008, it's been rebooted once since then, and is
now serving well over a million hits a day, so I'm not about to touch
it.

So, um, yeah, reboot now while you can.
