Default Closing down or rebooting your PC

Hi Grandma

Seems like Grandpa and Sgt have won your heart, I wonder if there is a little left room for me.

As for switching your PC off, the guys are quite correct plus LW is dynamic enough to find another source to download from. You can see this in action when you do a download and you have, say, 10 sources then it falls to 9, which is a PC being turned off, and then it goes back up to 10 again, that's LW finding another source.

The only time you should feel a twinge of guilt is if you are the only source for a particular rare file and you have to switch your PC off.

However, I suspect that like Grandpa and myself, you probably leave your PC on for three to four days at a time.

Finally, in answer to your question, I was born, raised, got married, had children and work in London, and it's a great city.



UK Bob
