Hi Listers, Remember the debate that ran for years (an still goes on I suppose) about whether it is better to leave your computer on 24/7 or turn it off between uses?
How about a TV set? I don't suppose anyone would leave it on 24/7 whether they used it for internet use of not, but what in your opinion is the optimal on/off use? For instance, if one is not going to use it for an hour, is it better to turn it off and then back on again, or is it better to leave it on (maybe muted) till one is not going to use it for several hours? I am thinking of picture tube life for the most part. What do you think? Anyone have any data here? Seen any studies on this? Any experience? Roger ******** The greatest difficulty lies not in choosing between self-interest and the common good, but in knowing the difference. ================================ ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
