Where's Ulrich?

Remember ,Where's Waldo?
I've seen him poking his head out here and there. Where are ya, Max? :D Whack-a-mole! ;)
Went for my daily walk, worked a bit in the yard, went to eat, took a nap, etc., etc.
Sorry, won't let it happen again.
You are allowed to do all those things...so long as you stop in between to poke your head in here for a few.
Our grandson leaves his puter running 24/7 and is on his third power supply.
I isn't dat dumb!
Zoinks! What does your grandson DO on that thing, or what's he plugging the thing into? ;)
We've always left our computers on 24/7 and have never had to replace a power supply in the 9 years we've owned our motley series of computers. We've never trashed a PC yet, just passed them on to others in working condition.
He is mostly doing games. His CPU runs hot and he uses additional cooling fans.
It's the main fan's bearings that wear out. You are lucky I guess.

Games. Figures! Probably overclocks, too. ;) If Olds has his way, he'll make gamers out of Howie and me... http://davesgarden.com/t/406038/ Then we'll be the ones going through power supplies like candy.
So glad we found you Ulrich.
You must check in at least once daily.
I have been thinking about leaving my comp. on 24/7. So many opinions on that. I don't have an extra phone line. I do have call wave and I don't miss calls..They say it's easier on the comp. by leaving it on.
Kim, what are you using for a power supply?
Sandy
We have a surge protector that we also route our coax cable and phone lines through before they reach the computer.
