Linux is, and apparently reportedly on os2-l, NT 3.1 is...

Unattended reboots would be a problem since OS/2 isn't stable.  If the
WPS starts crashing and rebooting over and over, and ends up connecting
and disconnecting to the ISP, that would cost a fortune.

However, weekly manual restarts would be acceptable, even for ISP use,
if OS/2 was that stable.  But it is not.  And I cannot be locked in a
certain selection of hardware, especially if it is not known at any time
until you tried it since I may need to upgrade for performance reasons.

I wish it was that stable, and I didn't have to write what I write for
that reason.
