This goes back to the question I posted on 17-Jan-99 to this list
(but never got any responses).

If I put my ThinkPad (380Z - P-II/300, 96MB) into SUSPEND (not Hibernate),
by closing the screen and the machine is attached to the AC adapter,
how long is it safe to leave the machine suspended before damage will
occur?

Any feedback?
