[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1589681, member: 56379"] We purchase devices to use them. If someone wants to keep an item in pristine like-new condition…don't use it. And if someone is not going to use it…then don't buy it.;) It's like buying a new automobile…and not driving it because there is a concern that the tires will get worn out. Restarting a computer once every week (for example)…is not going to stress the computer unnecessarily. A computer could probably be restarted once/week for 20 years…and not be a problem. Believe me…a computer is going to be obsolete LONGGG before it gets worn out due to the occasional restart (if this is even possible).;) - Nick [/QUOTE]
