I completely agree. My Mac PowerBook has had suspend-to-RAM for a
long time; I shut the lid and about 3 seconds later it's asleep, open
it and 3 seconds later it's awake. Leave it sleeping for a week on a
full charge, come back to find it still asleep. I can even put it to
sleep, remove a drained battery and put in a fresh one (it has a
small internal 2-minute RAM battery), then wake it up and resume
work. I'm curious though, what proportion of laptop hardware
actually has support for suspend-to-RAM? (including hardware for
which linux does not yet have support). What percent of that
hardware _does_ have Linux support?

Cheers,
Kyle Moffett
