That's fine, if you don't have anything important to do.
I have customers, some of whom could lose tens of thousands of
dollars if Windows crashes on them at the wrong time (is there ever
a right time?) If the last backup was made 1 hour ago, then everybody
in the shop has to do that hour's work all over again. Even if they don't
lose any data, there's the non-productive time spent rebooting and
trying to get back onto the network.
I'm converting as many as possible to Linux.
