"to turn off or not to turn off...that is the question.

I've been having this discussion with other like minded folks and thought that this site would be a great place for this discussion. Hopefully, the hardware section is also the right place to post.

Anyway. Considering problems of creep and boot/reboot problems, is it better to turn off a pc when not in use, in particular over night or anytime that the pc will be off for more than a couple of hour.

If the pc goes into some heavy sleep mode, is this almost the same when it awakens as a reboot (as far as the hardware anyway).

What do most of the admins do, off overnight and reboot in the morning or do you just leave it on all the time with periodic reboots for clean-up?
