Dear Friends
Which is better :
1) ALways turn on your computer ( though you're not using it all the time )
2) Turn on all time w/ suspends when not used
3) ON-FF
which is better ? My country got crisis, i don't think i would be able to buy
any computer parts within the next 3 years. I need to preserve the
computer as
long as i can. Thank you
Electricity is no problem for me :)
