Roxylee,

The hardest task for any electronic system is too be turned on and off. 
They are usually happy -- assuming proper ventilation  and temperature 
-- being left on.  It takes more wear and tear on the gear being turned 
on and off than just running.  Energy wise that is also the true -- it 
takes more energy to power something up than to leave it run and hour 
or so.  (We are talking computers -- not some big energy hog.)
