Welcome to the first of what will hopefully be many weekly OCC polls.

 

 

 

Q: How often do you reboot your PRIMARY computer?

[dr_bowtie]

I dont reboot unless necessary....

 

the longest the primary PC has went without a reboot is over 1 year...havent made it that far yet again...this year has been about 6 times so far due to power outages...

 

same for the server...and community PC

I turn it off when I'm done with it and on and off maybe 3 times a day just out of habit, I like to save power.

I turn my PC off every night. I suppose that's because it is in my room and I couldn't sleep with it on

Now that I'm paying the power bill, it goes off every night

I voted once a week, but it's probably not that often. I only reboot it when I need to. I do however put it in standby when I'm not using it.

Turn it on when I get from school, off when I go to sleep. I have it all day on but seldom over-night. Longest for me has been 5 days.

I do however put it in standby when I'm not using it.

This way I can sleep without it disturbing me. However I have to put a tissue on the power LED or else all my bedroom flashes blue!

 

Most often what makes me reboot is a Windows update.

Normally only once per day.

 

If, however, I'm doing some general maintenance I like to restart after I finish, gives me a nice clean feeling.

 

If I get an inkling to try and get 3.4 again there's usually a fair amount of rebooting going on

In college I left it on 24/7, but ever since I've been home, I only turn it on when I need it.

Now that I'm in college and get unlimited electricities... 24/7. I only restart about once a week due to crappy uni software.

On when I need it, off when I don't.
