I've seen a PSA recently advising people to turn off home
entertainment centers and computers when not using them. In my case,
there is rarely, if ever, a time I'm not using them.

I don't have a home entertainment center, but I do have an old 32" TV
with cable box and DVR. If I completely turned them off, I couldn't
record anything overnight. If I turned off my computer, I couldn't run
backup and virus check every night, like I do now.

I wonder how many people are in similar circumstances.
