Would you know if Q605/LC475s and 6100s provide this trickle?. I'd imagine it's possible they don't, being manual-power-on machines... It'd be kinda typical if they don't, considering they suffer more than most macs from low/no pram battery charge - booting to no-video without a double-power-on. (I'm assuming with no trickle when off, that the pram battery would drain quicker than in most other model macs) dana -- unnaturally hosted on a Q605, http://www.danamania.com/ -- -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
