I log off at the end of the day - most of the time. Most things are left plugged in ... I am seeing many commercials about unplugging everything ... seems excessive to me.

Most often I just log out but when I know for sure that I won't be back on it for the rest of the night, I turn off my computer. I leave the printer, modem, power strips, backup drive and router on all of the time.

I typically settle end, have a glass of wine and unwind. That might mean hitting the gym or watching TV, but it's always something that doesn't take a lot of brain energy.

I put my computer at the office into backup mode to download to an external harddrive and head out.  I take yesterday's backup on a different drive home with me.  So I always have a one day old copy in a different location.

I usually work from home, so I just wander out of the office when I'm done. Printer stays on. Laptop stays on (well, I do sometimes put the top down and sometimes I actually turn it off). So I'm somewhere between a 1 and 2. But mostly a 1.

I switch almost all, since I do not want to get any chance to fires.....too many of them around and it takes few moments to shut all switches. It is also good for our health to have as little magnetic/electric waves around as possible.
