Wow, shortening the life of the product versus shortening the life of the planet... Which will I choose.
Don't be a tool. Turn off crap you're not using. If you keep the display turned ON for the Squeezebox you're going to drastically affect its lifespan much more so than you will turning on and off the server. This brings up a HUGE gripe I have with the SB3 product. It can't be turned off. Powering off the server will make the display go "dim" but the unit is still on. In fact the display is still receiving power and is still energized, just displaying no pixels at any of its supported intensities. You can still see it glow red in an otherwise dark room. And it stays warm. It's bad enough the power bick is always consuming juice, but the SqueezeBox should really be made to completely turn off after a while of no server connection (save for the juice required to run its IR sensor I suppose). -- MelonMonkey Bruno *'Twisted Melon - Fine Mac OS Software' (http://twistedmelon.com) | 'mira - Personal Control for your Apple Remote' (http://twistedmelon.com)* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MelonMonkey's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8466 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35792 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
