Home PC is now only on when I need it (but when I have my own home back it'll be on most of the time again).
I never turn off my work PC or my web/mail server.Comment

would you call sending the PC into hibernation / standby-mode shutting it down?

On - 24 x 7
The only time I shut it down is when I think it needs "blown out". Which seem to be right around 4 months.

Server is up as long as possible...10 days record so far.
My PC is shut down all day, and is only on when i'm there...
(Managed to extend all the cables, and rid my room of the PC box and noise, but its in an open cupboard, and clothes hanging above it. If it caught fire, it could be dangerous....
Then again, many times have i left the iron on all day...PC-1

Server is on all the time (W2K3 server, wickedly stable, it's only gone down for power failures so far). Desktop is only on when in use (noisy), and laptop is usually suspended, and rebooted when it gets sluggish, usually after a week or two.Lady, people aren't chocolates. Do you know what they are mostly? Bastards. Bastard coated bastards with bastard filling. But I don't find them half as annoying as I find naive, bubble-headed optimists who walk around vomiting sunshine. -- Dr. Perry CoxComment
