	There's about 4 computers in my house that have been running 
pretty much 24hrs for the last 4 years, some have been BBS type things 
for a while... actually the most stress on a computer is cause in the 
power on, power off stages.

	If you have a reasonably built computer with fans that work :) 
you'd probably be able to leave them on no problem, but if they do 
explode during the night it's not my fault :)...
