Title: Where do you "park" BYOAC?
Post by: Bones on May 30, 2005, 07:29:26 am

OK.... So it's late at night and you leave your computer on 24 hours a day like I do. If your anything like me at night you go, and go, and go.... until you can take no more and then collapse in bed suffering BYOAC retina burn around 1:00am.

Where do you park your browser?

Do you leave the current window parked in the search window after researching for 3 hours straight about bloody coin doors?

Do you just abandoned it if after briefly checking new posts and realising you are running late at 6:00am in the morning?

Do you simply walk away from it and retire to bed leaving it wherever it hangs? Do you consciously close down your browser? Do you just let it hang after reading your PMs?

Or do you just do like Drew and leave it parked in Forum Stats so if Shape D starts to catch up you can head him off at the pass??

I forget to close my browser half the time.  Otherwise, I close it.

I got a Antec super quiet case because I hated the fan noise when I left my computer on over night.  Now you can't even hear the case when your beside it.
