Same here. I never restart my Pismo unles I did some update that requires it. Never had any problem with OS X. Had a Wallstreet before that I ran under OS 9 and later OS X and never had any problem with the sleep. However, I must say that I've mostly used my laptops without any peripheral, if that might help some users that have problems. I've heard from a few friends with non-Apple keyboard and mice that they were having sleep problems on their desktop PowerMac as well... -Laurent. -- ============================================================================ Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelin <http://nemesys.dyndns.org> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sometimes the majority only means that all the fools are on the same side. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
