[QUOTE="D3v1L80Y, post: 458464, member: 2960"] Just turn off (dim) the display. You would be using no more power than a light bulb... less, actually. It really isn't anything to worry about with regards to power consumption or wasting electricity. You actually have the potential to use more electricity powering it off and on again than you would leaving it idle with the screen dimmed down.
