I don't want to turn off my laptop when I am in the middle of doing something but need to put the laptop aside. I love using FreeBSD on servers, workstations and even a computer I have hooked to the TV at home for multimedia purpose, but not having suspend/resume working on my laptops is a major source of annoyance for me. So I have been trying various Linux distributions instead and I am currently using Gentoo, which is not that bad, although I find that system configuration and maintenance is always more painful with Linux than FreeBSD no matter the distribution I use...
