    I shut my desktop down every night when I sleep.
    I don't like leaving it on.

    Nothing to do with not liking leaving them running (although thats a good way to wear the fans out) I do restart every now and then as it appears to provide a significant performance increase as opposed to constantly sleeping/hibernating them!

    I dont shut it down because i like to leave my programs running overnight. That said, i feel as though i may be overworking my lappy and that it should get a good rest every now and then :/

    i usually shut my off whenever i'm not using it, but whenever i've got a bunch of tabs that i need saved i'll put it to sleep. but after a few days of that it usually gets slow and freezes a lot, so i try not to do it that often

    I usually just shut my screen and resume my work later.
    Sometimes, my computer freaks out if I do this and open it a week later..

    That's when I'll shut it down.

    I always put my computer to sleep when I'm not going to be using it for an extended period of time. When this time is >1 day I shut it down completely. Sometimes I'll just turn my display off

    I tend to keep my computer in sleep more or under lock. I restart every so often for updates.

    I shut down mine every night if I'm not downloading anything.
    Always click Home > Shut Down.

    Busted my last HDD by shutting down my pc by the power switch.
