What causes me concern is that it seems that after my Macs has been running
for hours, I just start having some stability issues.  But, if I turn the
computer off, and start over the next morning, everything is fine.  Makes me
think I've got some heat issues that are hurting my data or just making
things get goofy. Sounds like we have a very similar setup, though.  Isn't
there some kind of software out there that will track internal temperature
and tell when it's too getting too high?
