Your an hour longer than me.. but since your running on a compaq we'll count yours as doggy years ;)
 
I power off machines when not in use. But its quite easy to get months out of sun boxes.

Something I keep meaning to check is what the power draw is on a PC which is shut down but not powered off. At one point I had half a dozen machines in use (before VMs got going properly) and I noticed that the meter did a lot of spinning even when they were shutdown. These days I disconnect them from the power.

well our pc uses 30 watts when it is shutdown but still plugged in, just checked on the meter thing we have. But that is with an external hard drive plugged in, i turn that off and its on 18watts. 114watts when running with monitor on, its an old crt. and about 140 with the external HDD.
