Okay, here's a couple of simple questions.  I have read with interest the
ongoing debate of whether or not it is best to sinply leave the system
powered up all the time.  I just got my A3000 and will defer to the wisdom
of the Net.  I know if a system is used a lot, leaving it on is better
than turning it off, but what about one that is used everyday, but only
certain hours, i.e., 4:30 - 9:00 pm weekdays and 7:00 am - 9:00 pm
weekends.  Is it still recommended to leave it on?  I have the system
on a surge protector and power seems pretty stable here.  So what's the
concensus.  Oh, and please use email since most of this has been discussed
and I may simply have missed it.
Now, for the second question.  The version of QMouse I have will not blank
the pointer under 2.0.  Does anyone know of one that will?  My version is
1.4.0m (as near as I can tell).
Any help to both questions will be appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
Cheers, Dave
