== Personal Time == The ''Horizon: Virtual'' text establishes a unit of Program Space time in the section on the Programmer class: a "cycle". It is described as the length of time required for a programmer to rest in order to regain the capability to execute rewrites. For the purpose of the [[HorizonVirtual:The_Waker_Dictionary|Waker Dictionary]], I've linked that length of time to the standard Wizard rest time of eight hours. No real day or night. Anywhere from ten to twenty-four Program hours to shut a given computer down; an evening’s use of a home PC can equal up to eight Program Space months of up-time. Usage cycles for "always-on" PCs such as web, corporate or government servers - where usage increases during "business hours" and drops off at other points during the day - would probably be analogous to seasons. --[[User:IMAGinES|IMAGinES]] 22:08, 12 Jun 2005 (PDT) See also [[Talk:HorizonVirtual:Wakers#Waker_Lifespans|Waker Lifespans]]. --[[User:IMAGinES|IMAGinES]] 01:04, 21 Jun 2005 (PDT)
