Going for 1,000 (Days of Uptime)

Field Columbian Museum was created to house the artefacts from the anthropology, botany, geology and zoology collections

Some hours ago my laptop exceeded 800 (days) in uptime:

roy@bubi:~$ uptime
 13:56:18 up 800 days,  6:08,  3 users,  load average: 7.06, 7.06, 7.06
roy@bubi:~$ uname -a
Linux bubi 5.15.0-50-generic #56~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Tue Sep 27 15:51:29 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I am aware that the universal records are vastly better but typically for servers, nothing graphical (16 years seems doable).

16 years, equivalent to 6014 days 5 hours and 21 minutes
