No big deal :)
This is a 486 box serving web pages from a home base (via NFS to gateway).
No UPS, no special treatment expect dust and usual day-to-day abuse stuck
under two other boxes in a 'stack' of sorts I done a long time ago...
[nick@486Linux nick]$ uptime
9:29pm up 6 days, 1:40, 1 user, load average: 0.15, 0.05, 0.10
[nick@486Linux nick]$ last -xf /var/run/utmp runlevel
runlevel (to lvl 3) Sun Oct 14 16:07 - 21:29
(1000+05:22)
[nick@486Linux nick]$ uname -a
Linux 486Linux 2.2.13-7mdk #1 Wed Sep 15 18:02:18 CEST 1999 i486 unknown
I 'cut my teeth' with Linux on this box and it still going :)
Thank _you all_ for the great work :)
Nick

Wow. I wish -my- power wouldn't go out for 2 and a half years...

However, I do have mine on a UPS (literally =)
Kinda funny that it's basically the same kernel (Just yours is from mandrake
and mine is self compiled)

Hm, I picked up a german statement somewhere:
"Die uptime verhält sich proportional zur Penislänge des Administrators."
Isn't _that_ enough? :O

It's not what you've got, its what you do with it ;)
And yes, uptime pissing competitions are pointless (apart from showing the
world you run n insecure kernel) but they do waste a few minutes in an
otherwise slow day :)
