As the owner of an older PCI-Mac machine (5400/180), is there a tech note covering
this schedule tab issue.
My Mac sleeps (and, more importantly, wakes!) perfectly well from the Energy Saver
cdev but was contemplating implementing the Schedule feature. Would rather read
about it than face the prospect of a force re-boot to get the Mac back to normal!
Many thanks,
Phil.
