Oh dear, not this topic again.

Google is your friend.  You'll find that bragging about how long one's
server has been up for is a perennial favourite on the web and around
newsgroups.  One link that is a favourite amongst BSD'ers is:

http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/today/top.avg.html

The counter argument to all this my uptime is bigger than yours
tomfoolery is that any well managed server will be regularly upgraded,
run through power-on tests and so forth --- at least once a year ---
so uptimes stretching back to the pre-cambrian indicate a lack of
proper maintenance.  Whatever.

Cheers,

Matthew
