Should Home PC’s Be Powered On 24/7?

by pauly4190 . Updated 23 years, 3 months ago

This is such an old and stale debate, I know, but humor me please…

I say stand alone home PC’s (1.5 GHz and up) should be turned off at the end of the day or when it won’t be used for several hours or more. A “rocket scientist” I know says allcomputers should be left on all the time irregardless.

I’d like to prove I’m right. Does anyone know of any websites with emperical data/polls proving I’m right?

The more prestigious or respectable the site the better.

TIA
