Power of sleep

Chances are you will not be leaving your hair dryer on for 6 hours at a time. And you probably won't be using the toaster for a straight 12 hours. However, when it comes to computers, leaving ‘em on for hours and hours is sort of the norm. The best way to make sure your power supply doesn't fizzle out from overuse is to use the sleep mode. It is a mode that reduces the computer power when it is left untouched for a while. To jar the computer back into active mode usually all you need to do is touch the keyboard or the mouse. Most computers do have this mode. However, if yours does not there is software that can fix that problem.
