I agree that the data flow is small. But this system is a stand-alone home work-station. It's not connected to anything but one modem, one printer (almost always off), 2 monitors, a pair of speakers, trackball, and keyboard. It seems like a lot of "reaching out". I would have thought that the system would have no interaction at all with the modem until it wants to send something out, or until it received a "wake-up" from the modem. But I'm not an OS programmer. > I don't believe this is anything to worry about. I'm not fully convinced. But that is somewhat calming.
