You are not running a SERVER -- you are running some squeezebox software on a home computer. I think people hear "server" and think they need to run a giant commercial type piece of hardware that sits in a rack, with water chillers in the room and halon gas for fire supression. Its some software that runs on a laptop or a PC or a macbook. What's the big deal? If you have a monitor that turns off after 20 minutes, the power consumption is too small to cry about. Modern computers do not need to be turned off -- EVER. Set the monitor to go off when inactive, the rest is not worth crying about -- unless you prefer to complain about mysb. Wouldn't you rather have more local control, then have to 100% rely on Logitech's servers? -- eap ------------------------------------------------------------------------ eap's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=32788 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=78256 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
