I remember when microsoft windows was guaranteed not to stay up for more than 49.7 days because of a counter rollover bug. A similar 497 day bug in linux was discovered and fixed before the windows bug was even discovered. Most windows computers would crash well before 49 days and those that experienced the freeze assumed it was just another random windows lockup.
