Hi all, I have a 400 MHz Blueberry iMac that I upgraded with 512 megs RAM and a 40GB 7200RPM Seagate HDD. I'm running OS X 10.4.2. Since I'm constantly using this computer on and off for school, I like to put it to sleep. But I notice that even though the power light is blinking amber, the monitior still puts off a lot of heat, and that tells me that the monitor is not really turned off. What I was wondering was, since this computer has no fans and since I have installed a hard drive that generates more heat than the stock one did, if I never turn it off and only put it to sleep, will I be setting myself up for failure because of overheating? Also, since sleep doesn't seem to kill the power to the monitor, could I be making my monitor fail sooner? I know this is an unusual question, but I'm just curious. thanks
