I pound the heck out of mine. Two VMs (Vista x64 and Linux) plus 5
xterms plus Safari plus Mail plus my IRC client is the usual workload.
The machine is 2 years old now and has no issues aside from an
ignorable screen issue. I put more RAM and a hard disk in it and
that's it. It even replaced my desktop entirely after it died of PSU
failure.

Heh. I guess they got tired of the stability. ;)
I accidentally ran my Macbook battery down last year (fell asleep on
the couch), and it terminated a 183-day login session. I find the
stability to be acceptable.
