The uptime of a machine is a meaningless metric, in particular 
once kernel security erratum has been released (as you hint at 
above).

Any machines running in a capacity where security doesn't matter, 
but uptime does, are typically going to be some kind of 
enterprise machine of some sort, and that is where Red Hat 
Enterprise Linux ES or Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS would be a 
better choice anyway IMHO.
