The comparison was between a laptop in sleep state and a running Pi, so not really a like for like comparison and without WOL working, a sleep state laptop isn't going to be a user friendly solution and, speaking from experience with a Linux server, even with WOL working, it is still clunky. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ coyrls's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=44253 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114874
