Standby command

The Standby command puts the computer into a power-saving
mode. Standby holds the current state of the computer in memory
so that, when you restart the computer, you can continue working
from where you left off.
Factors when choosing Standby:
While in Standby mode, the computer uses some battery
power. A fully charged battery will last approximately eight
hours in Standby mode.
Restarting from Standby mode uses less time and battery
power than restarting from Shut down or Hibernation mode.
When starting up again, the computer returns to the mode in
which you left it, including all open programs and files you
were using.
NOTE: If you power down using the Standby command and
the battery discharges fully, your information will be lost. Be
sure to save your work first.
