My personal view is that desktops should be left on most of the time, because of how much wear a cold boot puts on a system...but I'm wondering, should I do the same for my powerbook? I usually shut it down 5 nights a week or so.
My only worry is how much should I connect my MacBook to the power. I've heard that it doesnt hurt the battery as it used to before (like ten years ago) when the technology wasnt as great as it is right now. Maybe once a week Ill do a battery drain and full recharge and a calibration once every 2 months.
I would say once a week give it a fresh start. Sometimes the amount of RAM used gets too high and it needs applications to restart. But better to restart the computer itself.
If that's the case then open Disk Utility and verify permissions. That's it. No restart needed.
