My other half wants to shut down the computers at night

But for many of us it's not an electrical cost issue! In earlier threads, it was noted that most geeks and many large corporations keep their 'puters on 24/7. That's because turning a 'puter on and off is the most destructive thing you can do to it. Think of a light bulb. When does it fail? When you first turn it on and the power surges through it. Now think of the miniature circuits, resistors, capacitors etc on a motherboard. The power surge isn't good for it at all.
