Security is in the eye of the keyholder -- not everyone needs every security
update right away.
Once upon a life, we had a dev box that had a 4-digit uptime. It was
decided that there would be a controlled reboot if only to make sure that
there were no undocumented "fixes" in startup, since there was some
personnel changes in the department. Kind of a bummer...
And don't get me started on VMS uptimes. Oh, those were the days... :)
