Having switched to Linux less than four years ago, I obviously have no 
uptime brags. Do have a small one regarding time since a reinstall. An OS 
from the dark side unfortunately... But perhaps this makes it something to 
truly brag about?

Passed six years on February 16th. Is still in daily use (was shared by four 
of us for the first 2 1/2 years) and has *never* had a virus scanner 
installed during this time.
