I got cable to have a *constant* connection to the net, what's the point
of having to wait for a PC to boot.

I've got two (well, now three) linux computers on my home network, and
well, for a year now, I can't say that one of them has been off for more
than 72 hours all-tolled.

Thusfar my only loss was an IBM drive that was seemingly too stupid to
shut down.  Look at, as was suggested, the hard drive spin-down info for
your equipment and insure that they spin down... or they may die fairly
quick... like within a year.
