I've had my amiga since mid May and it has been turned off only
a few days here and there and two weekends.  So it's been off
a total of about 1 week and on for about 16 weeks.  Right now
it's been on for about 8 weeks.  I do turn the monitor off
whenever I leave for more than 15 minutes or so.  Anyway I
haven't had any problems.  I do sometimes worry what would happen
if the fan failed.  I hope hope hope that there is some kind of
thermal shutdown device in there.

My previous computer (which I still have) has been on for about
5 years minus about 10 power outages.  It's still on and still
running fine.  It's a Lobo Max-80 128K 5Mhz/Z80/CPM/LDOS machine.
It doesn't have (or need) a fan.  It's a computer in solid metal
keyboard chassis.  By the way it's for sale if anyone is interested.
