Here are the results:

All in all I've recieved 13 messages.

1) Pc Magazine Glossy Pages: *Every* body hate these pages.
Some don't tear them because it tend to wear the mag, but
others do it in three passes:
   1) Remove all hard cards 
   2) Remove all sheets with adds on both sides (including the glossy pages)
   3) Read.


2) Do you keep switch the computer Off E)very time or at the E)nd of the
day:
   Answers: 13
   SE : 4
   SD : 9

I've included in SD two answers were the computer is never switched off,
and I've excluded one answer from both because the solution doesn't fit
in this simple scheme: The monitor is turned off at the end of the day,
but not the computer etc ... (The answers still adds up to 13 because
I've included my own configuration).

3) The computer in on its side or no ?

   Answers: 13
    Side Yes (SY) : 5
    Side No  (SN) : 8.

  Again, I've excluded one answer (tower case).

Obviously 13 answers are far from being conclusive. We'd probably need
something like 1000 or more... (not that I wass expecting that much, mind
you...)

Oh, well, it was a nice try.

Naji.

Ps thanks to all of you who participated. Should I list, or not ?
I dunno. Looks like a moral dilemma ... okay, I won't ... the truth
is I'm hungry... Does the Holy Netiquette says something about that ?
