do you sleep with your computer on or even your tv on?

yup...........tv make me tired..

Yes this definitely happens to me although I try to minimize it. If I want to take a nap but think I might end up sleeping the whole night, I just turn the computer off to save on electricity. I also use the sleep function on the TV a lot.

Sometimes I forget to turn of my computer, but this only happens when I still want to use the computer but already feel so tired. I tell myself that I'll just lie down for a few minutes and the next thing I know, it's already morning. I hate it when this happens because it's such a waste of electricity.

I always shut down my computer including ups.I used to get up during night at that time, I again put on and put off.It is always safe to put off and put on if necessary.It not only save electricity but also it saves from wear and tear of hardware parts of computer.

Usually i don't on my computer and don't sleep. But i sleep when i watch tv. And tv on at night till morning. At morning my father wake up me and switch off the TV. But now i don't have this habit as i don't watch TV now so much.

Yes, I sleep with the computer on because my computer acts as my alarm clock in the morning. Without it and its loud speakers, I don't think I can ever attend my morning classes!

there were times i fell asleep while the tv is still turned on. those times usually happens when i am so tired from work. i wake up after a few minutes just to turn it off and go back to sleep. but with my laptop, it never happened.

I don't have a computer in my bedroom, so leaving the computer on is not a problem for me. However, I almost always turn the television on when I go to bed and almost always fall asleep while watching it. I usually wake up sometime during the night and turn the television off.

Interesting question. I thought more people would leave their computer / tele on however it may differ depending the country they are living in.

hey hotsummer! Why are you still awake? Do you know what time is it? It is exactly 2:25 AM!!! You are a night owl huh! I am also like you!!! Nope, I do not leave my computer on. I always shut it down... When I am feeling a bit sleepy, I would turn off my computer already... I don't leave it running cause I am very much concern with my electric bill... Same as with the televison, if I am watching a good film or show late at night, sometime I fell as sleep so my solution is I set timer off... In case I fall to sleep, my TV will automatically turned off...

No, I don't. That would make me feel bad. We're not rich and we can't pay the bills easily, or even if we're rich, I don't think I will leave it on or even on standby. It would only contribute to global warming.

I do not do that, but I know someone who does. He tells me, that before he sleeps, he will leave his computer on because of downloading something, then the computer will only be turned off when he woke up in the morning. Then you know what happen? he destroyed his own computer. So do not over use your computer.

Normally I dont leave my computer on when sleeping. I only leave it all night when downlodaing some larger files from torrent or sth else.. Talking about T.V though my dad has bought a huge plasma TV(lol) i dont have interest watching tv..I dont find any interesting programmes!! Sometimes i watch but i dont levae my tv on when sleeping..

Hi Hotsummer, I always switch off the computer at night. The reason being that the electicity here in the UK is expensive. My son sometimes leaves it on standby though and I'm forever telling him that this is a fire risk and that it's costing me money. I don't think I would sleep knowing that there are electrical appliance switched on and running.

It does my heart good to see so many responders concerned about the waste of energy and also their power bill. These are my concerns and I have lately been turning everything off at the wall...except of course my fridge and bedside clock. I have a mini DVD player next to my bed that I watch each night and I invariably fall asleep having barely watched anything...but the unit is running on battery power and I wake briefly and switch it off before too long has passed.

I fall asleep with my TV on sometimes but wake up in the middle of the night to turn it off. My computer stays on all the time b/c someone is always using it. I have trouble sleeping at times and coming on the computer will help me want to go back to sleep at times.

Most days I turn my computer on at about mid day...I work on it for a while...like checking e-mails and so on...may be do some posting...select the surveys for the day and then I put my computer on stand by...until later on the day when I can come and sit and do all my work...when finished I always turn my computer off...and I will never leave my TV on either is a waste of power...all pilot light are turned off as well!

Save energy, save earth.. Should off the appliance. Let's start the new habit.

that also happens to me, especially when i am dog tired but has some work to do on my computer or a news to catch on tv. and i also think, we're not alone in this world of computers and tvs. but now, i have kind of mellowed down and always had the time and proper attitude with my computer and television that i always shut these gizmos down before sleep gets over my consciousness.

I almost always leave the TV on. Computer, sometimes. I have a habit of watching TV in bed and then falling asleep while watching. So, yes, most night, TV is on. Some nights, my husband would switch it off if he can't sleep.
