This is my home computer (WinXP Pro) (which I'm on constantly because I am a college student) which I leave on 24/7 and is always running SETI:
Current System Uptime: 3 day(s), 18 hour(s), 39 minute(s), 20 second(s)
Record since I built it in January:
2/28/2002 3:55:00 PM Boot .............. Prior downtime:0d 0h:1m:48s
3/24/2002 7:52:27 PM Shutdown ..... Prior uptime:24d 3h:57m:27s

My Win2k laptop, which isn't on right now, has a record uptime of about 32 days, and that was with heavy use (it was before I built my current desktop).

Right now, one of my Win2K systems is at 65 days. Record is with the same system @ 6 months (rebooted due to power outage).
