I always wonder why people boast at not having rebooted for 100 days
or so.  Usually I don't need my computer when I sleep so I turn it off
at night and I am quite happy at the energy savings that an off
computer gives me :).

I think that it make sense for computer to be on full time only for
servers or if you have some computations that last days.
