I certainly haven't been able to swap 600 batteries while suspended.

    But I still think its a silly thing to worry about having the
    2nd battery "on line" at all times. I can do a 2nd battery
    with my original 600 too. It just takes me about 20 seconds to
    suspend and hotswap it. Big deal.

I had interpreted this to mean that he was actually hibernating the
machine. Randy, is that what you meant? I was wondering that
too... I sure can't hibernate and un-hibernate my TP 600 in just 20
seconds.
