I have mine set to suspend after a 10 minute timeout. I hate having to reboot and log in again, both because it's an older BIOS machine that takes much longer to boot than to restore from suspend and because my desktop setup doesn't restore perfectly (thanks a lot, Evolution). The suspend is deep enough that I don't think there's a lot of power savings from powering it all the way off.

For what it's worth, on my desktop I clocked 'off' at around 0.2W, and standby at around 0.5W IIRC (actually, they may have been even closer). This is after suspending in Windows, but presumably Linux would be leaving the hardware in the same state (?).
I was pretty impressed by this and hence basically never turn the thing off now. YMMV, etc.
