Just got home for a party and I have some chicken wings so I just turned the POS on to have a look at ATOT.

15 hours so far. i shut off my pc when i go to bed, and i turn it on when i wake up. in between, if i go out, i set up power savings to turn off monitor after 1minute of idle. then when i come back home i set it back to 20min. yeah yeah, i could just push the monitor button, but i don't like to keep pushing it, aftraid it might break.

My server has been up for something like 526 days and counting. I'm almost going to be sad to shut it down in a few weeks when we mothball it.

My uptimes right now are pretty low. My dual MP2800 rig is being a pain in the ass and freezes every so often, I just installed a new motherboard in my dual Opteron 240 rig earlier this morning, I upgraded the kernel on my router earlier in the week, and an experiment gone wrong on my PVR yesterday required a reboot.

The best performer of the lot is my fileserver, which currently shows a 23 day uptime. It has been running fine ever since the power outage last month.

21 days, 00 hours, 33 mins, 29 ses.

Not bad for a WinXP machine. Although I've got 50 processes running and 532 threads... Wonder how long this lasts before I've got problems...

About 2 days. However, when I run the program or run the command systeminfo, the command window goes away almost instantly so I can't view my uptime :( I have WinXP
