My G4 Desktop, running OS10.4.9, with 17" Apple display wouldn't stay asleep. It had a mind of its own. Apple techs tried, I tried many different other ideas, and then there was Power Manager 3.6 to the rescue (of my sanity). Many thanks for your fine creation!

I have to say that is pretty cool. I am going to try the demo over the next week or so and I will restate my findings. I am sorry to have come off so negative it just seemed like it was priced high and the benefits were not there. It did seem that you were misleading, maybe you should note that somewhere on the site that the mac has that capability because from my standpoint it sounded like you were coming out of sleep mode yet saying it was a shut down state.
