longest ever online time?

I turn mine one when I need it
cause it makes my room really REALLY HOT why ? I don't know.. its just its way

i never turn off my computer. you guys are nerds. i read somewhere back when i first learned about computers that every time you start your computer, it shortens it's life a day. because the initial surge of electricity is hard on the circuits. so take that. dummies.

what paavo? i couldnt hear you.

But deker, the money you save from the electricity bill will provide you the money for a new computer :p

im lucky, my apartment complex pays for utilities so i have the a/c on all the time and everything else hehe

my laptops been up for 6 weeks straight until a power outage caused it to go down. my desktop, 2 weeks and mine is also on 24/7 because like sidez, i hate waiting for it to boot up whenever i use it. and my longest time on aim is 8 days 43 mins i think it was. :D

I only leave my comp on when i'm rendering....i'm leaving it on tonight, rendering a nice 90 frame animation.

The more you leave my LCD flatpanel on, the quicker it deteriorates....this "detioriation" is invisible to the eye though...i dont like having energy wasting, plus OSX starts up in under a minute, OS9 opens in 30 seconds..

anything more than 5 secs is too long for me. im an impatient guy.

4weeks 4 days computer uptime, aim has been up for 8 days now (it crashes after much more than that)

cybling, can we see this nice 90frame animation ?
