It may be turned on from time to time as I'm sure there's some stuff I forgot on it. :) But it's such a waste... that machine is still 100% viable.

Yep that is normal.

Means the system is down but ready to IPL.

Pull the power cord and the heart beat will fade away

I shut down my P8 system since I've transitioned to a new cloud system.
Yes, my office is too quiet now.. hah!

I don't recall before the power light flashing green about 2x a second
constantly.. Is that normal? Any way to have it just shut off or do I
just have to kill power to it?

Thanks!
