Re: Is there any way out of signing in every three days?
<< Electricity costs money. >>
True, true.... But is it like cars sometimes, in that it takes MORE
electricity to start up than it does if you'd just left it idling? I don't
know; I'm askin'. I keep mine running all the time; that's what I was
advised to do a long time ago. I understand it's easier on the machine. As
for energy consumption, I also understand that a computer uses a
surprisingly small amount. Any comp. geeks out there to substantiate this?
