Every computer I have goes to sleep normally and I don't know anyone with any problems. We're talking about a small amount of people here. They're normally people who don't know what they're doing. People like you.]]>Dec 19th 2009 9:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/
well, arent we an ass today....]]>Dec 19th 2009 10:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/I hope your either terrible at sarcasm or that your able to make more than one or two friends sometime soon. Windows always has had trouble with sleep mode, especially after one or two years of running.]]>Dec 19th 2009 1:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/This is a full reboot, man.

Nothing wrong with sleep mode but 10 seconds from power-on (i'd guess after POST) is impressive a hell and is really gonna kick the ass of the horrid little Unix clone box from Cupertino.]]>Dec 19th 2009 2:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/There are devices that don't like to sleep. I, personally, have had game pads and TV-tuners that misbehave after waking up from sleep, due to driver problems.

Also, is it possible to swap a battery while a computer is sleeping? I would think you'd have to power-off for that if you weren't plugged-in at the time.]]>Dec 19th 2009 3:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/Are you using only Macs or something? I have never had a Windows PC that could sleep properly. And I'm talking out of the box. I'm looking forward to this "new" feature of Windows 7. I've been jealous of Macs' ability to sleep properly for quite some time.]]>Dec 19th 2009 5:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/
You've obviously never owned a mac. That is one of the best things about them is wake / sleep. My PowerBook G4 from 2004 is still faster than my Win 7 laptop.]]>Dec 19th 2009 5:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/Are you all serious? I have had many computers since Windows XP and they all sleep fine. ]]>Dec 19th 2009 6:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/
I haven't had a single issue since the first beta and I manage all of my family's assets (including three HTPCs w/ tuners). I did have an issue w/ sleep on Vista w/ one of the computer before, where it would say a tuner was still in use, but hey, at least you can even GET an internal tuner on a Windows box, lol! ]]>Dec 19th 2009 6:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/19/dell-adds-cheaper-latitude-on-flash-module-to-some-laptops/And I bloody well know what's what.

And for business, the bootup is usually really slow because of the encrypted hard disk. ]]>Dec 19th 2009 8:39AM
