I am having strange USB goings on.
First the minor thing. I have an iMic plugged into the standard USB
port on my DA and a stereo. When I shut my stereo off my DA wakes up
out of sleep. I guess this probably has something to do with the DA
being wired to use a keyboard with a power key. This is
I wonder, is it possible that the screen saver (setting) Cosmos could be too

I ask because I set the screen saver back to Flurry and it didn't shut down
this time.

Nope. 1.8 ghz were never water cooled. However, they are
notoriously picky about matched ram. I had to return/exchange a
ram pair that were not exactly to spec- they just never worked.

When messing with dry cells - batteries if there is more than one - pay a lot
of attention to the mounting parts. A cell may test good with a voltmeter but
it may not make a good connection with the springy metal parts in its holder.
