[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1122511, member: 56379"] I doubt it. "Warming up" is not something a computer needs to do. back in the 1940's, 1950's, and 1960's when CRT televisions had vacuum tubes in them (rather than solid state electronics)...the "vacuum tubes" did need to warm up first. Computers from the early 2000's don't need to warm up. Besides...if you wanted to sell these eMac's to buyers to make a few bucks...what are you going to tell them when you sell them the computer: [i]"they work fine...you just need to let them warm up a little bit before using them?"[/i];) - Nick [/QUOTE]
