Flashing (Pulsating) or Blinking (Pulsating) Explanation: The Apple Powerbooks and iBooks come with a sleep LED which does something this. It pulsates slowly through off and on status, taking about 2 seconds per cycle. A quick search appears to show that even part descriptions for the actual LED component also use the word "pulsating". Reading from the description it sounds like "fading" might be a match, but if the light is gradually going on and off, then 'pulsating' might be a match. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2004-05-31 17:19:57 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Another less scientific term used is \"throbbing\" - again ,this only applies of the light slowly goes on AND off.
