hummm i voted only to reboot. My computer is a pain in the arse to say the least and requires a screwdriver to some special jumpers to get the thing booting again. I don't have the money for a case and even when I put it in a case it generally won't start at all. Needless to say my main computer is a strange piece of hardware and when I turn it off there is always a question of 'will it ever boot up again?'.
on a side note I am taking donations for a new computer. anyone that wants to contribute can send me a PM

I start my computers (at home and at work) as soon as i need them and i only power them down when i don't need them anymore. At work that is when i leave the workplace, at home that is when i go to sleep. At work the machine just keeps running all day, at home i let the machine hibernate when i'm not around for more than 30 minutes...
I only turn my computer on at home when needed as I'm on wireless and having trouble getting WEP going.
I'm also cheap and can be bothered to pay for electricity when I'm not using it.
** darn those high electricity prices, when my parents come for visit I ask them to bring cheap electricty and Tim Hortons.
hmmm timmies**
At work on when I get there, off when I go home.
