What's the Longest Your Computer has been on?

[LiNuX]

If you had to guess and estimate, what would you say the longest period of time your computer has been on. Turned on i mean.

It can be current computer or old computer. Just some stats.

This computer I am on right now has been on for 3 weeks now - longest for this PC was a month :D From the day I built it in February to some time in March.

My server has been on for almost a month and a half now but that still isn't the longest.

My Old PC was turned on for nearly three months a few years ago in the summer time :D I had to work on the computer and I had a program running that needed to run to work - forgot what it was but i think i was downloading something - and it didn't take 3 months, i just never turned it off lol

My monitor is shut off whenever I leave my PC though.

What about you?

note: votes are estimates - if your computer has been on for 50 days - pick 60 - just round up :)

I know this one has been on for 2 weeks at one point. My one upstairs would have been on for months, but the mouse keeps on shutting down and the only way to fix it is to re-start the computer. So 2-3 weeks at the most.

[Riku-Nara]

I turn my laptop off about once a week.
And my dektop was one for months on end.

i have that issue with my server's monitor - annoying but its the monitors fault since its nearly 12 years old lol

i don't even put mine on standby because it would just stop everything

[rukisuto]

The longest is probably around 3 months or so.
I can't really give you an accurate answer, lol.
I'm not entirely positive :]

[Samus-Fan]

My main computer was on for 6 months before I had to unplug it because my room was painted.


I felt bad for it, considering it was HOT

[jakncoke]

About a week... I sometime reset it if it's getting slow...also my family members have OCD about it being turned off and that's how it gets turned off a lot of the time

[rukisuto]

Only time we turn it off is if it's getting slow, like jak said.
The one in my room has been on for forever and a half though.
I never turn it off 'cause I hardly go on it, lol.

[Flab-Ender]

I chose 4 or more monthes because we don't shut our comps off unless power outage or vacation.

[LiNuX]

i don't turn it off when my pc is slow lol - i just use the task manager to close explorer.exe then opening it back up :D works like a charm

[Toby83]

I just turn mine off when im done. lol

[YuriPrime]

I just turn mine off when im done. lol
Same here, I always turn it off before going to bed.

[Raw!]

My longest time was when I was playing MapleStory and was an addict. It was about 14 hours?

[GF Eric]

My computer has been on since I broke my RAZR charger. That was about 5 1/2 months ago. So yeah I never turned it off since and soon it will be half a yeah. :confused1:

[Jjjet1]

i would have to say two days because i was dling something. but other than that i usually shut it off everynight. it just sucks up a lot of power if i don't shut it off then.

[Kiss]

2 monthes.

[LemonRising]

Mine goes off every night around 3am. Turns on 10-11.

My parents don't want a high bill lol.

Since they pay it, I have to listen. (:

lol - my parents do the same thing but before i moved i paid half the electric bill - but then again i had a job and my computer and server ran 24/7 lol - now its not so much and i dont have a job

[Scott]

About a day... Which was yesterday. Because I was addicted to the games I have for it, and I was trying to find a way to get internet on it...

Although, it could have been about a year ago when my sister was here. She never turns it off, and I was on at different times from her. But I think I'll just go with "A day".

[Iceskater101]

the last I have had it on was for an hour. I conserve my energy lol (:

[Blackbird]

I'm only shut down the computer when I'm going to installed something so this have been on for years.

[Iceskater101]

wow thats a long time your computer has been on. But yeah I mean besides my mom is all for the enviroment so if we can save energy we will.

[Kujo]

Well.. since I havent had to pay the electric bill since i've been in the military... i've never turned my PC off. If it ever goes off its because it had to reset after an install or some of the windows undates. Other than that... i havent turned it off in the 9 months that i've been out here. My power brick could melt your hands off!

[LiNuX]

i turned off my computer today cuz i tried to set up central printing for my house with my new printer - that didn't go too well since I need to buy a switch and an extra ethernet cable lol

so i had mine on for about 37 days this time :D and my PC is refreshed - might go for the 3 months again

[Blackbird]

This computer have become really slow to be on all the time rofl ^^

[Joshuah]

Erm 15 hours, my dad makes me turn it off when I've finished =] but I was on it for 15 hours straight :-P

[KittyCat72]

Never really exactly times... but when my mom was in the hospital I was on for almost a whole day strait.
