My main machine here runs 24/7, no sleep. It checks email, is connected to irc, im's, and providing some private file sharing services. Ditto for my server. Only had one problemo in recent memory -- I left open a Safari window running a flash game. When it lost its network connection (donno why) it went nutz trying to regain it. Started sucking up 100% of my cpu etc. No real harm done; just annoying. It made the evening incremental backup take an extra two hours. :\ If you don't have 'net connections running, then Sleep, Data, Sleep. - Dan. -- - Psychoceramic Emeritus; South Jersey, USA, Earth. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
