safe sleep do active EVERYTIME you close the lid come on!

I agree with Derivatize, I did not understand safe sleep, I think for the same
reason Derivatize has a problem with this hint. Reading misinfo.

When I first heard of 'hibernate' It was in the form of I had to switch it on. Using command line.
My mac is a G4 PPC 1.5ghz. 'hibernate' was new thing as far as I remember well after I got my PB.
I did not apply 'On by default' to my Mac, because I am sure in the past my battery has run down and the Mac had to be fully booted up. Hence the hint.

This seems to have changed without me realising that my Mac now seems to have 'hibernate' /safe sleep on by default.

I can also understand Derivatize frustration in some of the hints that get posted, I myself have complained in the past.
And to my horror I have contributed a bad hint.

But I do believe that one point of the comments is to have the people who read the hints is to help in verifying and expanding upon them.

As to trusting the backup Battery, its a moot point, but I still would not want to trust it. Maybe someone should really explain Why I should.
Are there any pros and cons of using the Backup Battery like this.
