Here's an ARM-B (Xscale processor) web/time server:
11:29:35 up 206 days, 17:07, load average: 1.00, 1.00, 1.00
Here's my MIPS (Broadcom) WRT54GL router/firewall/VPNserver:
11:32:57 up 206 days, 17:11, load average: 0.06, 0.01, 0.00
Uptimes would be longer except for an extended power outage. The UPS can
support these two for more than hour if no other computer is running.
That's the beauty of low-powered systems, and the beauty of Linux which
scales perfectly to fit your requirements.
