do you leave your computer on all the time or do you turn off at night and back on every day ?

I rarely ever shut mine off. If I leave town for more than a day I'll shut it off.

Under normar conditions my desktops and laptops are almost never reboot...
I find the suspend feature very helpfull and take advantage of it all the time ...

I shut er down.

Every night.

Every time I go out on errands, out to dinner, etc

Every time I go out to watch tv in the family room

Never had a hard drive failure.

On my 3rd computer since 1998.

I have 2 computers on 24/7. Never had a failure yet. But then I upgrade every couple years.

On, sleep mode or hibernate.
I power off/reboot once a week mostly to get Windoze updates installed.

Shut down every nite, turn off the power strip. No reason to keep it on unless I'm using it.

Off every night, and I pull the cable cord out so no internet is possible.
