[QUOTE="Marana, post: 934224, member: 69370"] I practically never shut down my PC at home and reboot it usually about once per month (when the monthly Windows Update package requests for it). When I don't use my PC, I simply put into Sleep mode - backed up with a UPS. Shutting down or rebooting the PC would mean to lose the context I was having, i.e. all the open programs and documents. In my opinion it would be very inefficient and annoying to rebuild the work environment / context every time when arriving to the PC. In this sense I'm still missing the days of Windows NT 4.0 that I remember having run continuously (without a single shutdown or reboot) for about one full year in my office desktop... not to mention the good old VAX/VMS computers, for which I remember the longest individual uptime having been about 17 years (which was eventually reset due to a Y2K update - that later turned out to having been unnecessary...) :) [/QUOTE]
