Getting Uptime in Windows XP

Want to know your uptime in XP Pro? Use the systeminfo command line tool! Check out my uptime before I take it down to put in new ram:


C:\Documents and Settings\Dana>systeminfo | find "System Up Time:"

System Up Time: 68 Days, 8 Hours, 38 Minutes, 46 Seconds

Basically, my machine has been up since I moved in to the new place! And I do huge kernel-mode driver development on this box ALL the time. And now to ruin it by taking it down to add ram. Oh well. Like the old Linux addage... "Reboots are for kernel upgrades or new hardware". I want my gig of ram... uptimes mean nothing compared to it. :)
