It's neither. But the discussion proved useful as it served to remind me that there are security updates that need to be reviewed periodically, even for machines that are not directly connected to the outside world. I also recorded a couple of URLs that I should review, and caught the reminder that 2038 is coming quicker than I had hoped. That was very timely, by the way. Later that same day it helped debug a problem. Yeah, we already have one web developer that has run up against that limit. He decided that forever is 30 years and wondered why QA got an error when they tried to set a schedule end date with it. No, we don't use any 64 bit OS, yet.
