Just wondered, because whenever I watch live.pirillo.com the Mac Pro is always on, and the mac mini must run the stream, so does Chris actually turn stuff off when he's away?

I would've thought the military's servers would be the world record since they had it on since I would think 1960 something.

personaly i only close my pc when i move to another apartment or when i want to boot my other OS, but generally when i am at home or not, my pc is always on. The longest time i had a pc open was for 3 years without a single reboot and i had it for smb file sharing on a small 30 clients network
