	Actually, it's a matter of picking what you want, and sticking
with it.  Outside of an environmental standpoint, if you access your
computer more than once every couple of hours, it's best to leave it
on all the time, unless you're going to be away for several days.  But
a computer actually customizes itself to its user;  if you leave it on
all the time, and then start turning it on and off every time you use
it, you'll be prone to power spike problems; if you usually turn it on
and off periodically, and then leave it on for long periods of time,
it will be prone to thermal problems.
	Just pick a system that meets your usage, and be sure to stick
with it.
