Well, there's a magnet in mine too (saw it when installing the 40GB :^) but it must ignore the signal to sleep when it detects that an external monitor is present. However as I mentioned, mine is a 500MHz combo model which was one of the first in the new dual USB series. I would assume that Apple made changes to subsequent models which prevent it from functioning with the lid closed no matter what's connected. -Mark -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
