Can your laptop do this?

Another reason why PowerBooks rule: I starting running "ant test-all" right before I left for the office this morning. I closed the lid as it was starting Tomcat to run Cactus tests. When I got to the office, I opened the lid, and Tomcat continued starting and all the tests finished running. Can your laptop do that?

Yeah, Windows XP has that hibernating thingie. Although my Vaio is not as sexy, it works well. :)

Carlos, I know about hibernating - but will the above scenario work on XP? If it does - that's awesome. The best part about the a PowerBook's <em>hibernate feature</em> is that it takes about a second to sleep and another to wake up. Last time I checked, XP was kinda slow to hibernate.

Yeah, my old toshiba libretto used to do that regularly as a function of hardware. So while rebuilding kernels on it it would do that 4 or 5 times... because it would overheat under the strain. But the first time I saw it I had the same feeling of awe.

XP has both hibernate and standby. Hibernate is power-safe (it swaps everything to disk?) - you can take out the battery and replace and restart. Standby uses minimal power and your laptop can be left like this for days (over a long weekend at least for a modern Dell) - but if power is lost it is the same as rebooting. Standby is quick, hibernate is slow.

Mac rules. This and other features like having a beautiful interface running on a rock-solid Unix OS make this the perfect development platform. I'm a bit concerned about how often Apple will release JDK upgrades - and what about version 1.5?

My laptop would have finished its job by the time I arrive at the office. Am I missing something here?
