Use Sleep Mode to Save Money

Leave Your PC Running? Put It to Sleep and Save Cash
When it's time to turn in for the night, what do you do with your PC? Turn it off? Leave it running? Put it in standby (aka sleep) mode?
There are different schools of thought on which is best. For example, some feel that the startup and shutdown processes create extra wear and tear, and therefore opt to leave their machines running 24/7.
According to a study, which recently completed some research on the subject, sleep mode wins the day (make that night).
Their findings:
1. When you put your PC to sleep at night instead of leaving it running, you save $2 per month.
2. When you put your PC to sleep at night instead of turning it off, you save at least 25 minutes per month (in startup and shutdown time, I'm guessing), while spending only an extra five cents monthly.
(When your computer is in standby, it continues to draw a bit of power. In hibernate, however, it's effectively off.)
In any case, I think there's something to be said for pocketing an extra $24 annually just by putting your PC to sleep at night. And as someone who has long been annoyed by annoyingly long boot times, there's much to be said for resuming your work session almost immediately, right where you left off.
