Personally, I prefer to have my machine in front of me whenever I need it.
Even if it _does_ idle for 90% of the time, it's the 10% of the time that I
really need it that's it's handy for.

I have to sleep, plus I have school, work, etc... It's not my fault I can't
consecrate every waking moment to POVRay!!!
