Keywords: Mac II ci, shutdown Message-ID: <14026@csli.Stanford.EDU> Date: 10 Jun 90 08:53:31 GMT Sender: kao@csli.Stanford.EDU (Imin Kao) Reply-To: kao@csli.stanford.edu (Imin Kao) Distribution: na Organization: Center for the Study of Language and Information, Stanford U. Lines: 8 I was told by someone that the electronic equipment, such as computers, should not be turned off and on too often. Therefore, I am wondering whether it is a good idea to shutdown Mac II or Mac IIci after I am done with it. Are there any reasons why the shutdown operation and reboot key exist? Does this mean that shutdown/reboot is encouraged? Any reasons why it should be shutdown (or shouldn't be) from the system standpoint? --Imin Kao
