Stick everything you can on a power strip and turn off the power strip. In the case of computers, even letting them sleep can draw a decent amount of power, so you should shut them off completely. To avoid the nuisance of turning them on and off, simply schedule your start-up and shutdown times so the computer handles the task automatically.
