[QUOTE="jhonrox, post: 1018719, member: 90717"] Thanks for the quick reply, TattooedMac, exactly what I was looking for! And thanks for the warning as well. I don't plan to use this software a lot. Its just that I hook up the MBP to a 23" HD screen while doing any media stuff and I need to be able to shut the screen because I don't have space for both screens to be used at the same time. Just a quick question though, when I enable Insomnia and shut the screen, even though the machine doesn't go to sleep, the display should, right? Mine doesn't. Is that the way its supposed to be? And will there be any heat issues if I do things as mentioned above? Thanks again! :) [/QUOTE]
