Not quite what you think from the title...

Basically, if I left my iMac off for a while (like a few days), when I hit the power button, I'd get a gray screen. I'd have to hit the power button again, and then again, and it'd start up normally.

It's been like this ever since I got the iMac. It hasn't bothered me, because otherwise the iMac is perfect, and I rarely turn it off anyway.

But I'm just wondering, what's a possible cause of this? Should it be something to be worried about long-term?
