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'm not fully convinced.  But that is somewhat calming.  Thank-you.
