FreeBSD entry on Wikipedia

[Bob Martin]

Linux uptimes roll over at 400 days, so the comment was to off set the 
whining.

IMHO, if they can roll out a patch to a major security flaw in a day, 
they should have been able to fix the uptime clock at some point in the 
last decade. Odd that MS can do something that Linux can't.
