    Sometimes, but I usually keep my laptop up for 48 hours straight when I am downloading something.

    I turn both my laptop and desktop off every night unless I'm downloading something or doing a scan... they are on all day and deserve their rest.

    usually never, get a good heatsinked rig and some quiet fans and you wont even know its on. plus you never have to worry about powering it back up.

    it costs less then 10$ year to power a desktop 24/7.

    I generally have my hard disks and monitors set to turn off when not in use, as every spin or hour is one lost. They both have limited time before they finally die out - so saving certain resources is best.

    I turn it off when I am done for the day. The noise of the computer would frustrate me when trying to sleep!
