Chas, could you clarify something for me, please? The port on the bus shared by the modem then is the "secondary" port for that bus, correct? The modem has first call on the power? Of the other two ports on the rear, which one has first call on the power (and therefore, is the Primary port) for that bus? Or is the bus set-up so that which ever of the two ports is used FIRST has the first call on the power? Sincerely, Dennis -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
