[X4U] My iMac is narcoleptic

[Mark Des Cotes]

OK, not really, but sometimes it seems that way.

I have an iMac G5 at home. Ever since we started using OS X, back on  
our old slot loading iMac DV, we've (the family) been in the habit of  
putting the computer to sleep when we were done with it instead of  
shutting it down. That's fine, I know. But for some reason the rest  
of my family has started putting the computer to sleep each time they  
leave it. Even if they know they'll be back in 10 minutes or so. I've  
often left the computer to go do something or get something only to  
have my wife or one of the kids tell me "you left the computer on".  
Waking it up only takes a couple of seconds but can constantly  
sleeping and waking it do any harm?
