I updated my laptop this week to Ubuntu Dapper - and now for the first time ever, I have a laptop that not only suspends - but resumes as well.   With  my version of Ubuntu (Hoary), my laptop would only suspend - the resume function left as an exercise for the user.  And of course without a resume, the suspend is quite a bit less useful.   Now, I'm enjoying the new suspend function - I started rebuilding a local copy of the musicbrainz database this morning from my home office. It was in the middle of a lengthy indexing operation when it was time for me to drive in - so I just suspended the laptop and stuck in the bag - when I got to work I just fired it up and it kept on working ... now I know this is no big thing for all you Mac and Windows laptop users but for me its a really big deal <borat> Very Nice!</borat>
