    WHILE the laptop of mine for 5 hours. i didnt let it on for more then that uptill now.

    I used to run my PC 24/7. I guess about 2 weeks uptime was the most I ever got out of it without a reboot (thank you Windows :rolleyes:).

    Current uptime : cmd > systeminfo
    2 days, 4 hours, blablabla

    People running their own *nix servers will have crazy uptime.

    yeah - about 18 hours for the laptop - and 24/7 on the desktop = and it usually runs for about 2 weeks - but maybe the longest was about 1 month ;)

    Vista on both

    As long as I need it for normqally 8 - 10 hours.

    When I used to run an IRC bot from my PC, I had it running for almost 8 months without a shut down. Got exceptionally good at installing programs and working round their need to shut down afterwards lol.

    It is a good idea though not leave your machine on 24 hours a day and give it at least one shut down where possible.

    I have servers here that have not been rebooted in about 3 months

    Yowza! Nice one :)
    I'd be lucky to get 8 months out of my power company without a flicker.

    In Countries where room temperaure is more then 30 degree centigrades if you let your laptop on for more time it possibly demages intigrated circuts ICs because it creats heats which cannot be controlled with the heat sinks attached with conventional laptops.

    /\ It also trashes you li-ion/poly batteries. If it's a hot day, take your battery out.
