[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1453278, member: 56379"] Many shut it off…many just close the lid (sleep). From my own experience, friends, family, and what I've heard/seen from folks on Mac-Forums…sleep/close the lid…is probably more common. The point of "sleep"…is so that the computer is ready to use much quicker the next time it is needed (even if the "next time" is the next day). But it certainly doesn't hurt to shut it down/reboot it occasionally. This is actually very good sometimes when the computer starts to feel a bit sluggish…since it clears the ram…and other things.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
