As the topic says, whats the up time of your machine? Or server(s) you run. The main reason I'm making this topic is I finally got one of my boxes to stay up over a year.

Old windows xp box, which it now only running Jarvis, my IRC bot.
This was not faked in anyway, not by hibernating the box for a year then booting it back up, Its never gone down. I'm actually surprised my power had a year of up time..
I'm at 30 days:
Here's my servers and other servers that I administer or oversee:

Nice Merth.
Kerm, wow nice uptime on some of those
My other box is only at 3 days.

None of my machines have particularly notable uptimes since I usually shut them down at night, but some of the ones I administer are respectable.
Code: [15:47:05 ~]
[tari@osiris]$ uptime
15:75:05 up 82 days, 17:33, 6 users, load average: 0.96, 0.94, 0.93
tari@astraeus:~$ uptime
15:47:16 up 82 days, 17:23, 1 user, load average: 0.29, 0.22, 0.28
Sadly I've had to reboot all my machines recently but my Wii was at 88days before the holidays rolled around. Right now my server is highest at
Code: 14:59:13 up 56 days, 19:44, 6 users, load average: 0.12, 0.05, 0.01
but the last time I took it down was for upgrades, which will need to happen again in the near future so I can expand my backup drive for stuff and things.
83 days, apparently.
Edit: Of course, most Windows machines should be rebooted once a month to install updates, but this particular machine has a habit of not switching itself back on when you restart it and, as the lack of Aero may imply, I tend to use it over Remote Desktop - physical reboots involve an hour long trek to the building it's in.

Wow your wii had 88 days of up time? Nice. I didnt think they could get that high of up time 
. But still, very nice.
@ben yay another one over 80 days!
It was booted into Arch Linux PPC at the time, I might still have it in my logs if I grep a little.

Ahh makes a little more sense now, cool that it was up for 88 days.
Wow, Ben, that's some impressive Windows uptime. How did you manage to pull that off on Windows? I don't think I've ever gotten more than two or three weeks of uptime on a Windows system.
My current uptime right now (Linux) is at 45½ days; the record was 77 days.
When ticalc.org was on the old server, it wasn't unusual to see 400+ day uptimes. Nowadays, the uptime isn't so much because the server now gets rebooted regularly to install kernel security updates and such.

I've found Windows Vista to be pretty robust; it may be that as you don't have to run as an administrator all the time 3rd party software doesn't have so much freedom to defecate all over your system, gradually slowing it to a crawl.
The only time I reboot my main PC is to install Windows updates - I've never had to reboot because it started misbehaving.
Ben, my two primary computers BSOD often enough to kill any significant uptime, I'm afraid. I'm hoping to solve that soon with a new mobo/CPU/RAM for my desktop, and possibly a new tablet PC if my adviser has funds.
Travis, I don't think I've noticed ticalc.org downtime in a very long time, kudos for well-timed updates.
Your BSODs, though, are a result of misbehaving graphics cards, aren't they? I'm in the same boat as Ben; I only reboot for updates.
None my computers have a respectable uptime, but my jailbroken iPhone once had an uptime of 66 days.
