If Mac wakes from sleep, it dumps the networked ones
« on: November 04, 2009, 11:45:33 AM »
I found that when my new Mac gets waked up in the morning by me, that it will give me a message saying that the network connection to my other Mac is disconnecting. Its annoying, it wouldnt happen very much with the old Mac, just once in a while.
I read in the MacWorld Magazine that this was an annoyance with the OS, but Snow Leopard fixes this.

Simple solution. Put the Mac (or better yet, all of them) to work on a good shared computing project (Google it) and just put the screen to sleep. Yeah, you'll be using a little more electricity, but I'm betting you'll not be able to see it on your bill.
