Really?  Not either of the laptops I've owned (a Dell Inspiron and a Thinkpad),
and since it's an option in every version of Windows I've used, M$ obviously
expects it to be under software control.  I know how I would enable/disable
standby on my Inspiron using ACPI, but I don't know what you'd do with APM.
