This is absolutely true.. I could compile ircd and run it on my Amiga,
and it would probably stay up forever, as long as I don't try to use
the machine for something else.  I wouldn't, of course.. I profer to
use my Amiga for more interesting things, and run the server on my
NetBSD machine.

Well, it's silly to argue over hot swapping and such, considering it's
rather uncommon for irc servers to be considered important enough to
run on such machines.  Splits are more often due to network problems
than the hardware they are running on.
