Re: Leave on or turn off?
I switch the monitors off but I leave the computer running continuosly unless I really have to do a restart to claim back my memory. No science based reasons. The monitor is switched off to save the planet, the computer is left on to save me having to wait for windows to reboot. Being "Green" is all about compromise after all!
It's an interesting question though. Is it better for your hardware to operate at a constant temperature continuosly or have it heat up / cool down between spells of idleness?
