    Is it possible to run the AAO w/external monitor w/lid shut?

    I mean, its so small you can have your mouse, kb, ext hd and all other perhiperals on a usb hub, then put your aao out of site/out of mind and just plug in your hub and monitor and leave the lid shut and still operate windows?

    Or do you need to disable the lid switch?

    I dunno thats why Im asking this here in this forum.

    Cheers

    PS, sorry if this has been asked before.

    Change the setting "standby" when the lid is closed to "do nothing" when the lid is closed in the power settings.
