I prefer to cut down my electricity bills by shutting down my computer whenever I don't use it.

Used to be on 24/7 but energy prices have just gone up another 30% so I switch on twice a day, mornings for emails, evenings for work and play.
My server
andreas@arnold:~$ uptime
20:34:54 up 666 days, 1:00, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.02, 0.08
666days... niiiice.
Here's mine:
20:42:14 up 88 days, 5:06, 1 user, load average: 1.00, 1.03, 1.08 on Debian 4.0. I'd probably had better numbers, but every few months there is a loss of electricity .
Ubuntu record is about 50 days, and now it's just:
20:46:00 up 3 days, 2:57, 2 users, load average: 4.00, 4.00, 4.00.
My last long stretch of uptime was 14 days before I had to boot into Windows to do some video editing.
It's funny, my Ubuntu install will stay up for half a month with no problems, and my Windows install will bluescreen within two hours.
What do tone deaf singers, floppy drive music, and an old woman dreaming about mashed rodents have in common? They're all on my blog! CHECK IT OUT

david_lynch -> That's some impressive uptime.
Mine is in comparison not that impressive but nevertheless my primary Ubuntu web server has an uptime of 270 days and the network PFSense gateway has na uptime of 287 days of uptime. (I made 2 screen shots)
The gateway way setup first and the server a few days later.
But fortunately I fear that both of them are going to go down soon since I think they might migrate onto ESXi so I'll probably be starting with zero.
Bye
aaron@ubuntu:~$ uptime
15:23:44 up 2:15, 1 user, load average: 0.31, 0.30, 0.52
It's a laptop, so I shut it down more often than not when I'm done using it.
06:46:12 up 7 days, 1:38, 2 users, load average: 0.42, 0.64, 0.75
I really need to power down..
