havent turned off my pc since early january...i did have to restart it once though
I turn it off daily, not that much PC addicted person
I leave both desktop and laptop on 24/7 unless forced by software or hardware maintenance.
I run folding@home on both.
There isn't a bargepole long enough for me to work on [a Sony Viao] - clocker 2008
desktop is always on. laptop i turn off after im all fapped out. so on an average week 2 reboots, on a good week id say 4 reboots.
I always turn my fire hazard off when i go to bed. That's the primary reason why I use a seedbox.
I haven't turned off my home pc for more than a few minutes at a time for probably over 10 years. I have upgraded a couple times during that, but I have never had a drive or cpu go bad.
My last Dell desktop lasted 5 years and all I had to replace was the DVD burner and the sound card. My current machine is an HP and it has been running for close to a year now.
I always use a good UPS that does line conditioning, like the APC SmartUPS. That alone will save you from 99% of hardware issues.
