Are you saying that your way of getting uptime is better than mine?

Oh, hmm. Yeah, your way is a little better because it shows the actual uptime and doesn't require mental algebra (and knowledge of what day it is, which I generally lack). Your way generates lots of extra stuff I wouldn't want to see. I really wish Windows had more command line tools like (ahem) UNIX so I could pipe it to grep and pull out the uptime line...

And THAT'S why Monad/MSH will rock so much. It has all of those filtering tools built-in.

Use

systeminfo | find "System Up Time"

which will do the "grep" for you.

... or you could just use the system up time counter, and have things logged to file at a predefined interval, without having to manually type a command every time you what an update.
