My Linux PC, stays up 24x7, mostly since I am running a seti client on it and
this way I can get about 3 work units done a day. Monitor stays on, but locked
when not using it. Printer is usually off.
Windows pc's stay on sometimes and sometimes get shutdown. Depends on who was
the last to use it.
I reboot when I feel like it, (usually when I really want to do something in
windows)
