watchdog or not?



Sorry if this isn't quite related to AMD64 Deb boxes,
but just fired up a new etch amd64 system today and noticed that
some watchdog processes are running.
IIRC, the purpose of the watchdog is to help reboot your server
in case of a freeze up?
If I'm not mistaken, this can be disabled in the bios.
Do most sys admins running servers enable or disable the watchdog
setting?
Just curious.

Thanks,
Mike
