Not a nuclear reactor no, but then I don't think I would run leafnode
on the same PC that was controlling my nuclear reactor :) It merely
serves as a router to share an internet connection between a couple of
other PCs which run more Gatesian operating systems.  Should it die I
will plug the modem into a Windoze box while I rebuild it.  A nuisance
but hardly a disaster.

However since it has been running for a couple of months without
requiring a reboot and the Windows machines can rarely last more than
a couple of days I do not forsee any problems :)
