    I turn it off, since my PCs are in my room. I can't really sleep with a PC on.

    Well, I always either turn it off completely, or hibernate it... even though I do end up having to mess around a tweak a lot of the settings after every restart, it is definetly worth it, as everything runs more smoothly... Also it is true that it does save a lot of electricity, (which equals money), computer components- the less time they are on, the longer they last-(which equals saving money) and also saves the environment, which means governments won't tax us for environmental damage, so saves more money!

    I definetly think its worth it, unless downloading something

    Hi,

    Just wondering if it's bad not to turn it off at night. I don't because usually I have so many photoshop things open that I can't be bothered to go through each and find which needs saving and which dosent, so I leave it on.

    Please vote on the poll and leave comments :)

    I do not turn of my pc at night but I'm not sure whether or not it's bad to turn it off at night.
