- Yup Dave, I've let my machine run night and day for about a full year now...
- it's a 486 clone with both OS/2 and Win 3.1... I have not had any troubles
- hardware or software wise due to not shutting down. In fact I perfer not to
- shutdown OS/2 because I HATE that damn
- "Lets_Start_Everything_You_Have_Ever_Used" feature (I used it call it a bug).
- That drives me nuts! I know that a CTRL-SHIFT-F1 stops it... but I should not
- have to wait around for it...
-
- Does anyone know of a way to kill that so-called feature...?
-
- But in answer to your question... yes (I leave it running) and no (I've had no
- troubles)....
