Why not if you have uninterrupted power supply. I have uninterrupted power supply most of the year and I switch off my PC less than 1 times in 2-3 months or maybe even once a year. And it always has got something to do with hardware or powercut.
And anyone can do it. I am sure quite a few others here do it too.

Well I figured that out,thanks guys. But what about mechanical components, like the processor fan maybe. I have the bundled solution on my p4 HT 2.8. In these winter days the PC runs just fine. But waht about the summer days. I live in Kolkata and the summer ambient temperature reaches >35degrees at times. And what about the continious spinning of the HDD????

Where do you find the temperatures of these? I use SpeedFan, that's quite a nice software as well. I would like to know how best I can use Everest as well. I got it installed and running.

Those who say that their PCs n lappy(s) runs 24/7 hrs. , tell me how can u run them so long espacially here in India where power-cuts are so common.In summers one had to suffer with these cuts upto 18 hrs. also.Not in my area though ;) N ur UPS may run out of battery under these circumstances :cool:

Absoloutely OK. Just make sure all your fanz are working for proper cooling............................

Many servers are kept open for months and have no problem... But more you keep it on, more of its lifetime is utilized, u know what i mean??

Its ok to keep the computer on for a longer time, provided the temperature of the mobo and the harddisk doesn't exceed the limits.

Unfortunately it's just over a month now cos I had to shut down the PC to install graphics card. But, I can safely tell that you can have the PC running for years without problems with proper cooling and power supply. I have had times when my PC used to run for months without being shutdown.
