Although, if Leta makes you SCRAM the computer you'll probably have a few minutes before you fire it back up. My point was the age old "patience is a virtue" thing. Not a believer before but now w/ a 8 week old, I'm sold.. True, true. Although, if Leta makes you SCRAM the computer you’ll probably have a few minutes before you fire it back up.

I haven't had any other major issues besides the shut lid restart. Doggiedaddy, yes. I think this will be my approach for now. Drink water and wait. Doesn't always work with a 3 year old, but I'll figure it out. To anybody else who was able to comment and has had their comment not show up, I didn't delete it. I just changed systems so that people could leave a comment. I apologize for the disappearance and hope nobody is too upset. Maybe some water would do us all some good?

It obviously varied based on workload (the highest time was w/ Aperture/Word/PP/Entourage/Safari/iTunes all running) but was never a burden like an Oh-God-kill-me winblows shutdown. Long story short? Shut 'er down, grab a glass of water while waiting for the reassuring glow of sleep then rest easy. Water is good for you.

I've tried the terminal trick, including the one to disable writing out the contents of ram to the disk (when you have 2 gigs of ram, this can take a while), and still no fix. Do you also get much longer pauses before picking up wireless after waking from sleep? I love just about everything on my new macbook pro, but the sleep issues are a disappointment. --- I’ve had nothing but problems with sleep on my macbook pro.
