Re: IPL frequency dangers

[Dave Murvin <davem@xxxxxxxx>]

Chris,

I have an S10 that I have been using just like this for the past two
years or so and no problems so far.  When I work out of my "office", I
power up in the morning and shutdown at night.  On the days I am not
working on the AS/400 or am working at a client site, the machine stays
powered off.
