Here's a compilation post concerning two other threads and one of mine own. 1) I'm "happy" to report that I think the trouble I've been having with the OS X mail application might be caused by a really bad server situation on Apple's part and not some mysterious problem with my computer. Cold comfort, but an explanation that's easier for me to live with. After three stressful sessions with tech support that went down three different paths, one product specialist pointed me to the iTools discussion forums, where I discovered a post by one of the moderators that indicated 20 % of iTool mail accounts were having similar problems rooted in server problems.
2) I've heard that some people literally leave their computers on 24/7/365. Why? Is this really better for the hardware? I would almost think it would burn out? Is it comparable to human bodies getting habitual exercise rather than a sedentary lifestyle? Could someone explain why one should leave a computer running all the time? Sorry if I missed the explanation in a recent post. 3) I recently had a dvd module replaced under Apple warranty. They made it easy by sending me the new module in a box with prepaid postage for the return of the old module via Airborne Express. Is this company the one Apple always uses? Luckily, I didn't have a problem. Thanks and regards, Donald -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
