As for the display settings, I personally have the display go to sleep after 5 minutes: saves more power and uses the display less than a screen saver (I don't really see the point of screen savers on an LCD, since their original purpose was to prevent burnt-in images on CRT monitors: I never use them). My PowerBook sleeps after 15 minutes, but that's more about conserving battery power than anything else. I always have the hard disk sleep option active, saving wear and tear on the drive.
