The media center PC does sleep. It wakes when WMC needs to record or when I want to watch TV. All the music is stored on the same PC running LMS so if I want to listen, I turn it all on. I use a logitech harmony that can control a wmc PC. It turns everything I need on and wakes the computer too. The touch is a more elegant way of doing it but I just don't think I need it in my current set up. The replies here helped verify that but I also learned about how there are advantages to it even in my current set up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ geobrick's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=56650 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96578 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
