In theory, seen in many places on t'net, Windows won't come out of
hibernation (be that real hibernation or hybrid hibernation) only
sleep.

Yes it's nice hibernation works as intended on this board, shame sleep
dosen't work as well as it should... though hibernation is pretty quick
with an SSD anyway so it's not really an issue.

What's the difference between hibernation and sleep ?

OK, ta.

On our Macs here, there's essentially no difference between power-off
and hibernation, but functionally it's the same as what Win provides.

I don't usually bother shutting down my laptop (just checks settings.. )
have it set to sleep when the lid closes. The wife's macbook which also runs
Win7 in Parallels is used in the same way - no idea what the settings are
there.
