How much hours your computer stays ON!!!

the computer becomes part of our lives as we spend more time on it..hehe. I go crazy when I dont have internet for the whole day.

I use my computer only upto 5 hrs. I browse net, play games, listen to music, watch movies, paint pictures, scan photos, etc. i switch off the computer as soon as my work is done. I think using computer for a long time is harmful for your health and pocket.

Both my desktop and my laptop are usually on 24 hours a day. There is very little reason to switch them off unless I am planning to go away for a few days and therefore will not be using them. If you leave the computer on all the time, it is a good idea to reboot every couple of days in order to release some system resources that Windows does not always make available after closing a program.

My computer is on all the time. I don't turn my computer off, ever. I was told by an IT guy that it is not neccessary to shut your computer down and it just takes more power to restart it after turning it off. He says to just reboot it once every 24 hours. So that is what I do. I am on my computer about 12 hours a day, if not more, between posting in mylot and another forum I use and reading my emails for money. Sometimes I am even on it longer than that. Plus my husband likes to play games on the internet, so he is on it a couple hours a day, too.

Mine is on all the time. The only time I ever shut it down is if there is some really bad weather going on. My husband and I have different schedules so its easier to just keep it on.

Only when I'm using it, which is most of the day. I never leave it on stand by or even plugged in. It must be really uncomfortable to watch films on a computer. I would never do that I'd rather get comfortable and watch films on my TV. Remember if your computer is on and you are not using it, then that is a waste of electricity. Surely you switch it off, when you're asleep.

my computer is always on and I do my daily activities around it for example go on computer, then break for some housework then back again, it is on from the time I get up in the morning to the time I go to bed.

hmmmmmmmm that's a great topic buddy!!!! my computer almost stays on due to ever y time some thing downloading in it.mostly it is ON 5 days a week at least. But to save the power i switch off he monitor. Have a nice day!!! Keep Posting

mine goes on shortly after I get up of a morning and is on until I have to go out, then it's straight back on when I get back.

My computer ON for 16 hours a day. I also watching movies, download songs and blogging. By the way this is my blog address: myatlone.blogspot.com But I'm writing my blog with my own languages, Burmese.
