I've recently come across a Belkin surge suppressor that has a remote that will turn off outlets to reduce standby power draw. I have a big AppleVision 850AV CRT, IIci, Beige G3, and and DuoDock II that are not used everyday, but which are always plugged in. Would I be reducing the lifetime of those items if I cut their power every few days? I want them to last as long as possible. Thanks! |

It is a risk to leave an old computer in the dust for a while, but an alternative is to open each Macintosh and reseat RAM and ROMs. It may be necessary to replace the battery and also clean the motherboard. Goodluck.
