> >Can you confirm that OS X allows you to suspend a lot longer ? > I can. It definately lasts longer. If I get the chance and not have to work on the book all the time ;) I'll run a test to give you some numbers. But it should end up with about double!! the life under OSX. It it were less I wouldnt mind. But right now I wish to be able to suspend for a whole weekend. ;) Hugs for the sleep-patch, though. :D greetings, Timo
