I've just learned that it is better to put my Mac to sleep when not in use, rather than turn off for the night. This came from a guy who is very deep in the Apple world. He has had a computer on for seven years now, just putting it to sleep when he's away from it. He finally said that 'sleep' is almost the same thing as 'off'.
How many of you leave your computers on, and only put them to sleep when you are not using it?
well mine is at least eight years old and I'm on it just about every day as I been retired since 1998 it may be more than eight old we been living here for
eight years and I had it at my other house before we moved to the island . I turn it off every time I'm not using it even to make a sandwich and cup of tea , and haven't had a problem with anything yet . I never put to sleep its off period
