What's out of hours when you're a global business?

Secondly, I do most of my "shopping" just before I got to bed at about 3am ,
whereas when I worked in an office, I would do it at lunch time. I spend on
average around 300 per month on ebuyer etc, so I'm  sure they find it worth
not turning off the servers.

Oh, and it also probably costs a lot more to organsise turning them on and
off than it does to leave them running.
