I updated my kernel the other day so it has only been running nonstop for 8 days, but I bet someone on here has a machine that's been running for a LOT longer.
Suspect this will be easily beaten but I'll throw it in anyway. My Slackware 12.2 server.
00:05:22 up 47 days, 14:34, 1 user, load average: 2.00, 2.00, 2.00
It has been up much longer but last went down with a power outage.

Slackware 12.2.0

I nearly concluded we were in the same institute (because of the power loss 47 days ago) until
I saw you were in the UK.
I switch mine off at night, to stop the mice downloading porn.
Haha, thank you for a good laugh kind Sir. Funny stuff, man!
Yeah, I don't build up any killer uptime either as I switch my units off at night as well.
I'd paste my workstation's uptime too, but it hasn't been running for a few weeks. It was more important when I was working from home, but less so now. During the day I go into the office (where we have to run Ubuntu), and when I get home I use my laptop so I can hang out with my wife.
Been thinking of overhauling it with 14.0, a new RAID array, and enough RAM to keep a few torrents running from /dev/shm (torrents are death on disks). Of course there's no point in buying the disks and RAM (which only go down in price, the longer I wait) until Pat & friends work out the bugs in 14.0, so in the meantime it remains dark.
