Its uptime is currently 27 days - I usually find that by about 50 it's starting to get sluggish so I run Onyx to clear the logs, download any OS updates at the same time (so that I only need to do one restart) and then reboot. It's on 10.3.9 so it's only likely to be getting security patches from now on. Neil
