It turns out that your computer running 24/7 is more power efficient than if you turn it on and off several times a day. The monitor eats up more power, but it's easy to have your monitor kick into power save mode, or simply turn it off when not in use.

Either way, you're more likely to use more power with your AC, Oven, or TV than you would with a computer.
