My computer is all day on! Sometimes I have to turn it off(when I fill that it is slow) But other than that it's always on. I think that all my electricity bill cames from my computer :)

One to two hours in a day, I use it. If you keep it on for hours together you are increasing your electricity bill, (unless electricity is free in your area)

I'm busy in different affairs, so, I can't keep my computer on for hours, but wish I could have done it. Mostly I turn on PC either very early hour in the morning till I go out to my office and in the evening till late night. That's my schedule - not less than five hours a day.

My laptop is on close to 24 hours several days a week. Our older desktop computer is on a good 8 hours a day, more on weekends. Our newer desktop --- the one that the kids use--- is on for at least 12 to 14 hours per day, more on weekends.

My computer is usually on from the time I get up to the time I go to bed. I do turn it off at night or if I'm going out for a long time to save on electricity as its expensive to run and bad for the environment.

well lets see...i do turn my computer off every night, i don't like leaving it on all night, espically if it was online (threat of viruses) becuase i've already had to whip my computer twice due to viruses, anyways i would have to say that its probably on about 6-7 hours a day total
