Suspend no longer helpful? It is extremely helpful. I run a new
desktop and I constantly use it. It incomparably much better than
shutting down every time you have to leave for a longer period...not
to mention that you can "boot" in no time right back into your
previous desktop session this way. I never turn off the machine or
reboot unless I have to.
