Do you guys turn off your PBs at night?
I have an AluBook 1GHz at work and I always switch it off, though leave it open. No need the wear the hinges more than I have to. I just leave it on my desk.
The other day I left it on as I had to catch a bus home and it was still performing an upgrade and when I came in the next day it was still warm (not hot), though I have an old internal PC fan standing behind it on all the time and it's raised at the back (stands on two rubbers from an old Quadra 700).
Also, I just exchanged the battery (Apple free of charge suspected faulty battery thing), which shows I did the right thing switching it off.
I agree with you, better to switch a PowerBook off due to the battery as opposed to an iMac or whatever.
