machine) won't just randomly shit the bed or reboot "just because".
Ah. Gotcha. I would wholeheartedly agree with you on that one, Dave.
But I'm running Windows 7 which doesn't seem to have that problem. If something requires a reboot, it ASKS you beforehand, giving you the chance to decline and then reboot later when you're ready to do so.
I've heard that later versions of Windows (such as 10 and 11?) simply reboot whether you like it or not if you delay the reboot for too long (or so I've heard). Just one of the many reason why TODAY'S Windows does indeed truly SUCK! (IMHO)
Windows 7? Nice! :)
Windows 10 or 11? SUCKS! :(
