Hello Roy - 

--8<--cut 

RJT> (Switching consoles on linux box) 

RJT> Uptime: 209 days, 15:17. 

RJT> (Flipping other monitor on, checking that one) 

RJT> Uptime 132 days, 3:27. 

RJT> That'll change fairly soon, though -- I have to shut down
RJT> that second box one of these days, stick another HD in
RJT> there (I just got done testing a 10G drive somebody sent
RJT> me), put a SCSI card in there to support the scanner, and
RJT> pull the sound card out, putting it in the first box. And
RJT> editing the necessary control files, too. 

RJT> Those times would be a lot longer than that if I weren't
RJT> fiddling with the hardware from time to time, and if I had
RJT> a decent UPS that would support these machines when the
RJT> thunderstorms roll through here in the spring and summer.
RJT> Working on it... :-) 

I've had W2K uptimes of over 4 months but as you say, I tweak
and install software that require a reboot. I do think this W2K
install could do uptimes to match *NIX machines. It is very
sturdy in use and no BSODs for a long long time now.
