    Okayy, that makes a lot of sense. Well, I'm moving to Europe then!

    Cool, so lots of you leave pc on. Guess I don't need to feel guilty about leaving it on for a full day

    I usually just leave my PC on 24/7. It's nice for those long downloads, and just because I'm really lazy...

    I would have left mine running, if my old GPU didn't sound like a tractor

    My HTPC stays on all day as it is also my download pc, but I built it with that in mind so all the components have low power consumption to try minimise cost.

    Work pc never gets switched off. Home laptop I never leave on... Only turn on when I get home from work.. Sometimes I will leave it on overnight for downloads to finish with auto shutdown enabled

    Pretty much try to switch off when I can. Although i work from home so my work pc is always on during the day, and only at the end of the day do I switch it off.

    I think if I had a laptop, it would be on and off all the time. It just seems like it's 'supposed' to be be, you know.
