Just curious how long people have left their system running without reboot.
I once left my server at a co-locate for over 3 months and it ran fine. In
three years, I have never had to reboot because of crash.
I have rebooted about once every 3 to 4 months (guessing average) after
maintenance. This was voluntary, not necessary. I don't run X either
(dedicated server mail/ftp/web). Anyone have any really long times for X
and non-X systems?

As long as your talking about servers this uptime thing is ok, but
when talking about workstaions it's redicolous, premature and an
unjustifiable waste of natural resources. I sometimes think Linux
users just do this to show their Windows using friends how cool they
are.
I shut down my machines at the end of the day.
