well the thing is i download a lot of things and so i keep it on the whole night
actually i have two computers. one has a very good configuration. it is a new one and i use it for my work. and then other one is old. i can hardly work on it but then it works so i use it to download things. and that is why it is kept on the whole night and sometimes even the whole day. :P

Only if I am not downloading would I turn off my PC. I do turn off its peripherals - monitor, printer, speaker and scanner to minimize electric consumptions. This is if I would sleep late, if I left my wife doing her computing then my download is done fore till next day.

It all depends on the need. When some work is going on or some download is in progess, I use to keep it turned on but when their is no work, I turn it off. Well when I use to download something, I keep the option of turn off automatically when download finish on, so when the download finish, my computer automatically gets turned off. Well their is no harm if it keeps running 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. The only loss is of electricity.

of course i do, cause i don't like to work on the computer at night. i just sleep cause i get tired already at night time and i don't have the patience to stay in front of the computer that long. anyways, i used to forget to turn of the computer at night but now cause i feel that i am not that motivated to be active online as i used to so i just turn off the computer less i forget to turn it off.

Yes, I do switch off my computer when I go to bed. I do it to save electricity and also it is not safe to keep it sitched on throughout the night. My friend Sheeba does the same thing like you. She is a graphic designer and very fond of animation movies. She will be downloading cartoon and animation movies all night and therby won't switch off the computer.
