Oh, that's nothing. :) I had a Sparc 5 that was up for like 520 days. I moved from Sacramento, CA to Pleasant Hill, CA and I wanted to keep the uptime. When I moved the network to its new location, I very carefully untangled everything and the SParc and its SmartUPS were the last things to go into the truck.
I drove all the way down here and it was the very first thing I got plugged into the wall outlets.


2 days later, some drunk moron plowed his car into a utility box and knocked out power to the entire area for more than 8 hours... little while longer than the UPS was able to last.

Bummer. =/
