No. You UNPLUG them.
We had an electrical storm 2 years ago that caused some damage to virtually everything we had except for the computers that I unplugged. Most was fixable, but really suffered for a week since the A/c was the major thing to fall prey to a short. |

YOu are actually suppposed to unpplug them in case of a power surge, but turning them off can not fry them quite as much. |

Yes, though I think surge protectors help negate the reasoning behind it. |

Only if they aren't adopted. =)
Seriously though, if they aren't surge protected, you should probably turn them off. |
