i leave the computer on all day, because we have a cable modem, i get on and off the internet most of the day..
however, at night, i turn the computer completly off... its bad on the motor of the computer to keep it on, and a running computer takes as much energy as a refrigerator...

Main Rig:
CRT monitors set to shut off at 2hrs idle.
PC: never stand by.
I will often shut down the puter if i know nobody will be using it for 8 to 10 hrs. If im downloading or rendering video i will leave it on for days.
Cheap Kids Dell:
Monitor sleep @ 1hr
PC standby 2hrs.
On all the time.

I never turn my tower off... it's not really a good habit, but i'm running low on RAM and it takes forever to get it up and running again. I just let it sleep after a couple hours and turn the monitor off at night when I'm not using it.
