Recently I was powering up the ole' 1k and I happened to turn on the llllllllole 2400 baud modem first. I glanced at something that caught my eye, and saw that the LED in my Amiga (The Power indicator) was glowing at about half brilliance; The computer was off! Trying it a couple times, I realized that the modlem was somehow sending power to this light through the RS232 port! (Process of elimination; I take off the cable, the light doesn't show up...He always was a smart boy). Any problems this might cause? What exactly is goin' on? Any cause for concern? Thanks for your time, bconnor@hpuxa.acs.ohio-state.edu -- ***************************************************************************** * /\ /\ /\ | /~_ /\ __ | /\ /\ /\ The proud and the few. * * /~~\ / \/ \ | \_/ /~~\ | \/ \/ \/ bconnor@hpuxa.acs.ohio-state.edu * *****************************************************************************
