Why put the PC in sleep mode?  To start up quickly?  but a PC in sleep mode will consume about 10 to 20 watts of power.  Why waste this power?  Good to use a very fast SSD that would start up a PC within a few seconds.

Can't wait for the PC to start up in seconds,  then hibernate it and put the PC on auto-start mode so that it will start the PC automatically or put the PC in sleep mode every morning before you use it.  In hibernation mode,  the PC consumes only about 1 or 2 watts of power

This is a good point. I've often put my laptop to sleep mode so that I can continue to do what I've left behind from the previous day. I didn't know the difference in power consumption is so big.
