Standby is fine for desktops but when it comes to laptops, I'd much rather power down to save my battery. Coincidentally, using a laptop is precisely the time when fast boot time is desirable. When you only have a 15min coffee break, a 30sec boot time is 29sec too long. :D
 
I used to use Amithlon on my laptop all the time. Unfortunately I've got a newer laptop and Amithlon doesn't really work on it. :( I sure wish Amithlon had never died. Personally I think Amiga Inc should have snatched up Amithlon and used it as a migratory path to AmigaOS 4.0 for x86 instead of going the PPC route. But that's just my opinion and I hope this thread doesn't degrade into some "PPC vs x86" flamewar just because I stated my opinion.

 
As long as lapop lugged in to power suppply where is the problem
