[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1626303"] Sleeping the Mac is definitely fine. In fact, it's what Apple recommends, though I'd also suggest buying a UPS (uninterruptible power supply) to help protect that machine from brown-outs/power surges/momentary dropouts/etc. I'm in the habit of actually turning off my keyboard and magic trackpad, but this is just an old habit and I have no evidence that I'm saving any power at all from it.
