Use screensaver to lock your Mac
Authored by: sjonke on Apr 16, '02 09:52:03AM

I had this same problem on my 366Mhz ibook (clamshell). Is Spring 2001 a new-style or older style iBook? I have not seen this to such an extent on my new PowerBook. I would say never, but there was one time when I did seem to get a delay, but only for 7 or 8 seconds. It hasn't happened since. The problem with my ibook seemed to improve a lot with newer versions of OS X, but as I recall I would still see a delay some times. I'm presuming it's a bug in OS X. Update to the latest version of OS X if you haven't done so already and that might help.

Of course the PowerBook has its own problem: lousy airport range, but that's another story....
