I believe I have figured out why the e1000 crashed my machine after .5 - 1 hours: The NIC was over-heating. I measured one of the NICs after the machine crashed with an external (cheap) temp probe. It registered right at 50 degrees C, and this was about 15-30 seconds after it crashed.
Ben, please send lspci -x on the hot nic. -scott
