For exactly the reason you stated. Although my computer is generally running 18 + hours a day, my peak usage throughout the entire house isn't in the middle of the day when it's most expensive. Peak usage at my house is really early morning and late evening. But who knows? Some of the local websites I visit, where people have already had theirs installed, it seems the majority are experiencing lower bills. I'll re-post once/if I actually get it.
