having a PC vs. mac debate with a friend of mine, i'm not even going to begin it on this...

but what OS/CPU do you have, and when did you last restart?

The last time I restarted was 9 days(s) 19 hour(s) 13 minutes(s) 46 seconds(s). This is on a Windows XP Professional machine that had a clean reinstall done a few weeks ago. Some time last year I was able to keep Windows XP Professional up and running fine for about 40 days straight with a 500 megahertz processor and 256 megabytes of RAM and the computer was used every day for a few hours each day.

11 days ago.

edit: and that's only because I went on vacation and I turned my computer off.

A couple hours ago, finally installing cats 4.6.
Athlon XP 1800+ @ 1.72GHz, Win2k SP4.
For the record, the install is going on two years old, two (or is it three--can't remember!) mobos, three main (OS drive) HDs (ghosted twice), three (soon to be four) video cards, two PSUs, three sound cards, and two monitors. Not a single hard lock, unaccounted-for reboot, or BSOD yet.

Windows XP, Athlon XP 2700.

I restarted last night, trying to figure out a connection issue. Before that, it was probably three or four weeks.

This morning. I can't sleep with my computer on. Need a quieter fan for my cooler.
Out of curiosity, what fan are you currently running?

P4/XP... earlier tonight rebooted for windows updates, previously 3wk uptime since I got back from college, which was an 8wk uptime.

Athlon 1600+/Slackware ran without a reboot from winter break (Jan 20) until the end of finals (May 10)

My Windows XP box, two days ago. However, I turned it off becuase I was gone for a month, before that I had about 92 days of uptime using about 100% CPU time. This is on an Athlon64 3000+.
